I am looking for a toggle switch for my car, and found the following eBay item:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/e...=4609799708&rd=1&sspagename=STRK:MEWA:IT&rd=1
According its description it is rated 20A@125-277 VAC with 14 gauge wires.
Now according the following site a 14 gauge wire can only transmit 5.9A.

Do I interpret the chart correctly?
Can I use this switch on my car's 12V electrical system?
