    12-24Vdc A/C Wire
    I need to run wire from my condenser outside to my indoor unit for 12-24VDC. Is thermostat wire sufficient for this? I was going to go with 18-5 just in case one of the wires had a problem.
    Thanks.

    Cable labeled "thermostat" wire is exactly what is used for this application. Having spare wires is always a good idea.
