Wire Size
My 99 F250 SD has a power point that uses a 25 amp fuse.
I am adding another power point, voltmeter and USB charging port.
I already have an 8 Ga wire from the battery to a fuse block.
I will use a 25 amp fuse to power all three.
I already have them daisy chained with 14 gauge wire.
Should I replace it with 12 Ga wire?

"Horn Button- 13 GAUGE"
I have never seen 13 Gauge wire, this must be from an averaging algorithm.
