Hello.  I have a layout up on a shelf running around a bedroom and want to run a main power wire from my ZW under the shelf to attach track feeder wires to.  I am using 18g wire for the short feeders and have inherited a bunch of home theater "monster wire" - I would like to use it for the main power and ground runs.  "Monster wire" is typically used in home theater applications and is stranded wire - I would guess it is 8 gauge wire - is there any concern over running such a large gauge wire for my main power line?  The track length is only 40 feet long (oval track) with one passing siding.  My ZW has two 180W power supplies and I could buy 2 more if need be.  Thanks!
