MS9-29 wire type

Hi everyone,
The NAC manual indicate that the AC 100V OUT and the Degauss wires coming from the PSU and going to the monitors chassis are 20awg / UL1007 (red for the demag/degauss and pink and light blue for the AC). In my case, the chassis itself do have thicker wires (AWG1, different UL type (1015), and different colors (red-orange for the demag and black and white for the AC).
To my opinion, there should be the same type of wire on both sides of a connector but maybe in this case, the chassis is giving heat that's why Sega added some different wire types. How does the wires looks like on your chassis?

Hey there

My NAC is same as what you reference; 20AWG UL1007 up from PSU but 18AWG UL1015 at monitor chassis. In addition to having more copper, the 18AWG UL1015 also has thicker insulation. I would guess that better heat dissipation is the reason for the different wiring.

Hey kikaso!
Ok, so the ticker wires should be the good ones.

Do your RBG/Sync/GND Sync wires also 22AWG / UL1007 on the chassis side?

Yes, 22AWG UL1007 wiring for the short RGB harness on the chassis side.

Okay. Thanks!
