wiring

Electrical wiring is an electrical installation of cabling and associated devices such as switches, distribution boards, sockets, and light fittings in a structure.
Wiring is subject to safety standards for design and installation. Allowable wire and cable types and sizes are specified according to the circuit operating voltage and electric current capability, with further restrictions on the environmental conditions, such as ambient temperature range, moisture levels, and exposure to sunlight and chemicals.
Associated circuit protection, control, and distribution devices within a building's wiring system are subject to voltage, current, and functional specifications. Wiring safety codes vary by locality, country, or region. The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is attempting to harmonise wiring standards among member countries, but significant variations in design and installation requirements still exist.

    Electrical problem, no spark.

    Okay, I’m new to the site and hope I am asking this question in the right place and forum. I have a 1983 CJ7 that came from the Toledo factory installed with the AMC 4-cylinder engine. I know, those didn't show up until 1984, but what can I say? Even I was surprised when I picked up the Jeep in...

Picture of wiring is attached and includes two cut wires in the rear that I suppose...
