Would this work for household electric? I live near the water and there's a leak somewhere in the walls!

You need to buy Romex. That is approved to go inside walls. This wire would work for wires not inside a wall though but does NOT meet standards of amp load and fire safety to put inside a closed wall.

are these actual verified AWG? some amazon wires have thick insulation with wimpy copper core which is several gauges less in actual core diameter.

Ancor is known for making the highest quality marine wire and connectors. I have used it for years, but never actually measured the gauge. However, all the various gauges I have used fit snugly into the appropriate size connectors, so I'm pretty sure the actual wire core is the correct diameter.

Why Ancor wire table has significantly higher amp rating than equivalent wire of others?

Ancor has better insulation. They are constructed with premium vinyl insulation that is rated at 600 volts, 105 deg C dry and 75 deg C wet, stays flexible even in extreme cold (-40 deg F/C) and resists salt water, battery acid, oil, gasoline, heat, abrasion and ultra-violet radiation. I use this on all my cars Arizona summers are brutal

Will this work for temporary using a portable solar panel array?

I currently using it in automotive application and have had no problems.

Perfect Gauge of wire, and flexible enough for an Antenna installation

Was needing some Marine Grade 14AWG wire for an End Fed Half Wave Antenna for a permanent installation. This was ordered, arrived and looks perfect and was the right price. Have not used it yet, but ready for a Christmas project. Now have all the parts ready to install.

Good Wires

Unlike so many wiring products available at parts stores and online, this wire absolutely lives up to the hype to justify its higher cost. It’s easy to solder and the insulation is thick and strong, with excellent resistance to temperature, solvents.
