With electrical wiring, what does a runner wire mean?

A runner wire in electrical wiring is a wire that is connected to a main wire, usually through a terminal block or junction box, and runs alongside it to provide additional current-carrying capacity. It is used when the main wire is not large enough to handle the amount of current required. Runner wires are typically made of the same material as the main wire, but they can be smaller in size.

Runner wires are commonly used in electrical wiring for homes, businesses, and other buildings. They can be used to connect electrical devices such as lights, appliances, and motors to the main electrical panel. Runner wires can also be used to extend the reach of a main wire or to connect two or more electrical devices together.

Here are some additional points about runner wires:

• Runner wires should be properly sized for the amount of current they will be carrying.
• Runner wires should be securely connected to the main wire and to any other electrical devices they are connected to.
• Runner wires should be protected from damage by using conduit or other protective measures.
