Bob,
Do to W&B considerations I am moving my 2 Panasonic 1220 batteries 8' aft. I had originally used #4 as the runs were all short, 18" or less(all forward of the firewall). The batteries were initially mounted on the forward firewall.
As the cable runs are now 9' I intend to use #2 welding cable. Yesterday another builder stopped by to "review many progress" and said welding cable might not be a good choice aft of the firewall as welding cable gives of poisonous fumes if it burns.
Comments?

When ANY insulation burns, the products of
combustion are exceedingly unfriendly
to children and other living things.
There are folks who make it their life's
work to 'reduce risk' . . . even to the point
of codifying their profundities and threatening
you with retribution for regulatory
transgression.
In THIS case: What conditions would cause the
insulation on these cables to burn? Electrical
overload is one . . . externally applied fire
is the other.
The risks for electrically induced overload are
so tiny that certified iron of all sizes does
not add overload protection to these wires.
In FAR23.1357 we find these words:
Sec. 23.1357 Circuit protective devices.
(a) Protective devices, such as fuses or circuit breakers, must be
installed in all electrical circuits other than--
(1) Main circuits of starter motors used during starting only; and
(2) Circuits in which no hazard is presented by their omission.
If you've got active fire in the aircraft
that threatens to ignite your wire's insulation,
then I suggest your risk issues go far beyond
any concerns for the quality of the smoke.
Bottom line is that while those-who-know-more-
about-airplanes-than-we-do will prohibit certain
insulations in new design, they still permit
an older airplane to be repaired with the SAME
insulations that were on the original type
certificate.
For example, a 1946 C-140 wired with cotton over
rubber wire or a 1968 C-172 wired with nylon over
PVC can be repaired with the same wire. If the
admonitions for controlling cockpit pollution
were imperatives, then one would think that any
airplane brought in for repairs should be
completely re-wired.
The short answer is that risks to your future
well being due to poor selection of insulation
are vanishingly small compared to risks
for bird strike, wind shear . . . or running
out of fuel.

I found that #2 wire is also very heavy, and used the "fatwire" from perehelion designs; see http://www.periheliondesign.com/fatwires.htm

Please, can I say something?
My first comment may be, "What doesn't produce noxious fumes when it burns?"
Well, a goodly amount of welding cable, it seems. It just doesn't burn.
Some does. One insulation for welding wire is treated neoprene rubber. I remember some time ago (when I was a chemical rep) there was a big discussion on the use of ETU (Ethylene Thiouria sp?) as it was used in the vulcanization process. (There may be other methods in use now.) And neoprene rubber burns.
EPDM does not.
BTW, both come in red and I can't tell you why so few use this colour on their + battery runs.
What is not supposed to burn is EPDM. Ethylene propylene diene monomer is, I think, the most common store bought welding cable insulation. The price for a brand name is roughly the same as for neoprene. However, I (that would be me but you have your own choices to make) would not use EPDM in this application as it has significantly lower resistance to grease and oil than neoprene. Apart from that, EPDM and neoprene are pretty much equal in strength, abrasion resistance and so on so FFW I would have no temptation to use EPDM - except that EPDM is not supposed to be flammable. Much of the surplus welding cable I have encountered seems to be neoprene, but I wouldn't count on it. (They both come in different colours and finishes.) So, with EPDM, no poisonous fumes. It doesn't burn. Put that in your pipe and try and smoke it!
The neoprene cable I am most familiar with is the Carol Brand made stuff (now General Cable.) General Cable makes even more rugged wire, but I have never seen it in use - only on sample boards. In the spec sheets, GC calls US made Carolprene flame resistant. The big welding stores sell this stuff by the light year.
I do know that Carolprene finds its way inside mines, factories, etc. where there are going to be major concerns in the case of fire. I have been around this or similar products most of my life and have never seen it burn. Granted, I have never intentionally taken a torch to the stuff but I can tell you it exists in seriously harsh environments. (It pulls back if you solder it with a torch so I learned to make good crimps. That's one expensive(!) crimper [so borrow] but I was always able to find good terminals surplus. DKW.)
Next time I see a wire rep, I'll ask if he can give me the burn temperature for the insulation. A brief hunt http://msds.dupont.com/msds/pdfs/EN/PEN_09004a35803d9eb8.pdf reveals that plain ol' neoprene "burns" (flashpoint, open cup) at above F500 (C260) degrees. For reference, wood burns at about C300 degrees. The fumes from neoprene ARE toxic and noxious. They can cause permanent lung damage.
Even though EPDM is NOT flammable it's maximum listed service temp is C150 degrees. So if you want, run as much as you like inside your aircraft and dare your buddies to burn it. Under the hood, EPDM does find it's way into ignition wires, but to my mind this is an item you replace every annual. If you build nose heavy and put your battery(s) in the tail, then this might be just the place to run EPDM!
More importantly, I think, than insulation is wire strand size. I have seen a LOT of very heavy strand stuff called welding cable even though it would never be tolerated. Acceptable stranding should be no larger than 0.010. All the good stuff is.
In addition to Bob's comments about fusing: I guess you could always put in a fusible link if you REALLY felt the need. This just seems like an additional and unnecessary failure point (more connections) to me. I wouldn't do it. ( Aside: As a teen, I had a '74 Mazda Rotary with a failed fuse link that took me days to find. They also ran all the current through the ammeter; something I learned not to do thanks to that experience.)
In the one aircraft I have built and the two projects I am working on, I installed a cable or rod operated mechanical battery switch and no solenoid. (A switch needs no current to stay on.) Either way, I don't know if I would remember to turn off an ignition switch or flip a battery switch (and turn off the fuel and turn off the fuel pump and so on) if I was in a hurry to get out of the way. Maybe that requires practice on my part. I remember reading a tale of a WW2 pilot who bailed out and felt cheated at just that moment as in all his training they never even gave him a minutes instruction - let alone practice - on how to deplane ("Not now, Tatoo. I'm busy admiring the Corinthian Leather seats in my Volare."*) when he wasn't on the ground.
All this conversation about safety... How many of us wear a parachute?
*"De plane, Boss! De plane!" If this makes no sense to you, I feel very old.
Neoprene does not appear to be a trademark, hence I avoided capitalization as it is a generic term.

Personally I agree with Bob...... If you have a fire burning to the extent of worrying about fumes coming off the insulation jacket, you have your priorities wrong.......

I've been selling Copper-clad-aluminum Fatwire in several sizes for years. Many many happy users on the Aeroelectric LIst. Top fuel dragsters love it too.
Sizes Super-2-CCA and Super-4-CCA both use a VW-1 flame retardant high tech polyester insulation which is as benevolent as an insulation can be. Super-8 uses a TFE "Tefzel" copy (I sell the Super-8 to the military and others).
All of these are designed for aircraft use but find uses in balloons, racecars, helicopters, drones, etc., where weight is important.
I will gladly send a free sample to interested builders. See attached.

Hello Eric,
This may be a "loose canon" question..
In a glass/plastic aircraft, do both polarity cables need to be the same size [dia.]? Seems in reality, that there are less electrons "coming back to the battery" than going out..., hence the allowance for a smaller pipe!
Thanks in advance,

What a wonderful question! In fact, there are exactly and precisely as many electrons returning as got sent out. Electrons don't go back to "battery rehab" for another trip. The true picture is far more complicated, and if you decided you wanted to know, you'd never finish your airplane.
In a metal airplane, letting the metal body carry the ground current is possible but not to be undertaken without some serious engineering work, and might change over time. Letting the metal tube frame carry the ground current likewise is problematic.

Correct; whilst the relative voltage changes in a series circuit, the current stays the same throughout the circuit. We size cables by considering the current through them, and the voltage drop incurred across the line until it gets to the load; the current being the primary factor. Since the current is the same throughout the circuit the return line must be the same size as the supply line.

Thanks for your clear reply to my [humor intended] question. Ironic that you mention the ex-USSR president, as he remains a hero to some friends [USSR], primarily for trying to get corn started in the countryside. Better it had been "popcorn." I still enjoy watching kids eyes when popping in a bag of micro-waveable corn for them, on visits [Belarus]. Mank

Hello Eric,
This may be a "loose canon" question..
In a glass/plastic aircraft, do both polarity cables need to be the same size [dia.]? Seems in reality, that there are less electrons "coming back to the battery" than going out..., hence the allowance for a smaller pipe!
Thanks in advance,

Hey Henador -
Good joke - too much damage control but I get it now (I am also prepared to accept "EE decrees" as another joke . . ?).
All is well -

Kirchoffs law I think you mean. The sum of the current flowing into a node is equal to the sum of the current flowing out of a node. Or in other words you need the same size cables.

My suggestion is that it will be just fine, assuming that you use the
antenna supplied with the E-04. The comm will be affected just as it was
with the other ELT antenna there, or maybe a little less. The ELT
radiation pattern will be affected, but I would think only slightly, and
not at all on 406 MHz. The only risk factor I can think of is that there
might be a little more potential for intermodulation if you are
transmitting on Com 2 while the ELT is transmitting, but that's a highly
unlikely scenario.

What a wonderful question! In fact, there are exactly and precisely as many electrons
returning as got sent out. Electrons don't go back to "battery rehab" for
another trip. The true picture is far more complicated, and if you decided
you wanted to know, you'd never finish your airplane.
In a metal airplane, letting the metal body carry the ground current is possible
but not to be undertaken without some serious engineering work, and might change
over time. Letting the metal tube frame carry the ground current likewise
is problematic.

Subject: RE: Re: #2 Welding Cable
Correct; whilst the relative voltage changes in a series circuit, the
current stays the same throughout the circuit. We size cables by
considering the current through them, and the voltage drop incurred across
the line until it gets to the load; the current being the primary factor.
Since the current is the same throughout the circuit the return line must be
the same size as the supply line.

Hello Eric,
This may be a "loose canon" question..
In a glass/plastic aircraft, do both polarity cables need to be the same
size [dia.]? Seems in reality, that there are less electrons "coming back
to the battery" than going out..., hence the allowance for a smaller pipe!
Thanks in advance,

I've been selling Copper-clad-aluminum Fatwire in several sizes for years.
Many many happy users on the Aeroelectric LIst. Top fuel dragsters love it
too.
Sizes Super-2-CCA and Super-4-CCA both use a VW-1 flame retardant high tech
polyester insulation which is as benevolent as an insulation can be. Super-8
uses a TFE "Tefzel" copy (I sell the Super-8 to the military and others).
All of these are designed for aircraft use but find uses in balloons,
racecars, helicopters, drones, etc., where weight is important.
I will gladly send a free sample to interested builders. See attached.

Hey Henador -
Good joke - too much damage control but I get it now (I am also prepared to

Thanks for taking the time to reply. Yours [and the others'] answers did settle a long-nagging point [kinda' like a turn-to-downwind and stall... ]. It is great the way others chime-in. Humbling actually, especially if [every once in a while] when you begin to think you know it all, you find out the opposite, and keep on learning.
Cpaciebo. [Thx in Russian].

What a wonderful question! In fact, there are exactly and precisely as many electrons returning as got sent out. Electrons don't go back to "battery rehab" for another trip. The true picture is far more complicated, and if you decided you wanted to know, you'd never finish your airplane.
In a metal airplane, letting the metal body carry the ground current is possible but not to be undertaken without some serious engineering work, and might change over time. Letting the metal tube frame carry the ground current likewise is problematic.
