the brown wire is thermocouple wire
It was donated. It is aircraft grade=$, I believe Aircraft Spruce has tefzel shield twisted pair. We used heat shrink and paper to label the wires.
The reason for using this wire is because of the coating not creating a toxic fume when burned, higher temp insulation, (Higher current, harsher environment), lighter, and better abrasion resistance,
Where does one get all the white wire from? How do you label it? Spendy?
