Is the wire gauge important?
Using an adequate wire gauge is important for two reasons. Signal transmission and strength. For smaller yards, 20 gauge wire may work okay. However, thicker wire will give you better, cleaner signal transmission. This means less chance of interference from power lines and other electro-magnetic noise sources. As the size of your containment area increases, the more important it is to use heavier, copper wire that comes standard with your HC-7000A Super System.
