Not a perfect picture, I realize. I had to borrow extra hands to get it and
then didn't look at the picture until later. But I think it is just good
enough.

This looks like a situation where having a lack of defined wire protocols leads
to differing views on how to measure a wire. You are measuring the wire from
end to end with the connectors, so it seems to be ~20L. The one that is in the
inventory looks like it is also ~20L when measured this way, but it was inserted
into the catalog as ~17L which is just the length of the wire. I would almost
bet that the 5306bc017 and 5306bc020 entries are probably the same and should
probably be merged, but we have not got to the wire project yet. Please make
a note somewhere of the wire length you received for this set and how it was
measured, so we can use it at a later time. For now, the inventory will be left
as is concerning the wire.

Cheers,
Randy

The wire itself would only be 16L.
