The thickness of the wire is usually the same, though. That's the way it should be. In most amp kits, the ground wire is shorter than the power wire, because it doesn’t have to run as far.

If it is smaller, that is your limit and you just as well run the smaller power wire. The power and ground should be the same gauge The ground wire should be the same size as the incoming power wire.

The power and ground should be the same gauge
