Avalon 1246 PSU CABLE WARMS UP

[TCB_123]

As mentioned on the tittle just got an A1246 85THs 3400w 16A, so I bought an 1,5mm cable but is getting really warm in less than 10 minutes, I've been searching for a 2/2,5mm cable but nothing found.
Any idea?

Besides, I've been running it at lowest power available

Search for 14 or 12ga cable instead of mm size.

Oh, when posting logs please use the # code tag... It presents the info in a more user-friendly  scroll-able window.

so I bought an 1,5mm cable but is getting really warm in less than 10 minutes, I've been searching for a 2/2,5mm cable but nothing found.
Any idea?

That's too long if you are looking for 2 or 2.5mm cable it would melt pretty fast if that is the size of the cable you were looking for without checking how thick the cable is.
The thickness is very important because this unit needs more power if you run the unit at high performance mode it will melt the wire after a few minutes or thin wire can't provide enough power even if you run it at high or low performance mode.

The 2nd link provided by philipma1957 is the best gauge size that will fit to your unit the thicker the wire the smaller the resistance which is better when pulling higher power than the thin wires.

As mentioned on the tittle just got an A1246 85THs 3400w 16A, so I bought an 1,5mm cable but is getting really warm in less than 10 minutes, I've been searching for a 2/2,5mm cable but nothing found.

C19 is rated at 20A, not sure where you got that cable from, it shouldn't exist, I bought/traded thousands of c20 to c19 cable from China, the smallest diameter would be 2mm2, it would be a lot safer to go with 3*2.5mm2 cables but 3*2mm would do, I can help you search for something in your region but I need to know your PDU plug type, or is it a wall socket? if so, is it type F, G, or what?

[HagssFIN]

I found few C19 -> Type F 3x2.5mm2 cable options (presuming that you live in an area in Europe where you want Type F plug).
They are a bit special and only crypto mining operators use them.
For "regular" server guys, the 1.5mm2 cores are usually enough.
