Default Re: Is a Horn Relay Necessary?

If the horn draws 5 amps, then make sure the switch, wire, and relay (if used) are rated for at least 10 amps. If you use a relay, then the switch and wire to the relay can be rated for less amps than the horn draws, but the wire feeding the horn still should be able to handle at least twice what the horn uses.
