Forces Between Current-Carrying Wires

Two large wires carrying approximately 100 A AC attract when their currents run parallel and repel when anti-parallel.

Setup

Don't run for more than 2-3 seconds at a time, under risk of smoke, sparks and fire. Make sure all connections are good, as it's the most common source of trouble.
