One safety thing I should point out is that a power supply will
typically fold back if the current is greater than the current rating of
the supply, but all power cables that are of a smaller gauge than the
current handling capability of the supply should be fused at the power
supply end with a fuse. The fuse current rating should be matched to
the wire gauge.
If you do not know the current handling of a particular wire gauge,
consult a copper wire table.
Be safe.
