I "think" I found it in Frank's April 17 post responding to my April 15 Horning Wiring post. It is a #16, unless it is one of the exceptions noted. I can't find where the exceptions are "T-1, 1-K, K-U etc." are identified.

Thanks, Frank.

Frank, I sent my last note before I saw yours!

I was looking at the paragraph in the upper right hand corner of the diagram above the one you just referred to. Where are the T-1, 1-K, etc. shown?

They are not exceptions - just hard to see click on the image to enlarge The H-I makes the capital I look like a 1

Frank, Thanks again. I now understand what the H-I, k-U, etc. mean!
