Maybe this is a power wire?

That is a power wire not a ground. And it doesn't appear to have a fuse inline. First thing is to get a fuse installed. Check and make sure it is big enough to feed your equipment. If not, use it to pull your power wire.

You can also re-purpose the wire for grounding. If it's big enough for power, it's big enough for ground. And vice versa.

Thanks so much for the help so far!

How do I check if the wire is sufficient enough to power my equipment? Any good guides you know of?
