What does AWG mean?
American Wire Guage. The smaller the number the larger the wire. As in an AWG 14/2 wire is much smaller than an AWG 10/2 wire.
What do the letters AWG means?
American Wire Gauge ( AWG )
What is the AWG of 7 strands of AWG 33 wire?
Use a wire table to find the cross-section area of #33 wire, multiply by 7, then find the AWG for that cross-section.
What size wire do you need for 15 amps?
AWG 10.
What is the required wire size for 100?
A 100 amp service requires that you use AWG 4 copper wire or AWG 2 aluminum wire.
What size of wire you need for a 42 amps heater?
8 AWG.
What size wire and breaker do you need for a 5000 watt garage heater?
Look on the heater and see what amps it is pulling. That will determine the wire size and breaker size. It must be on a dedicated circuit. 15 amps = AWG # 14 wire with 15 amp breaker 20 amps = AWG # 12 wire with 20 amp breaker 30 amps = AWG # 10 wire with 30 amp breaker 40 amps = AWG # 8 wire with 40 amp breaker
What is the maximum amperes that may be applied to an electric heater circuit?
Actually, the amperage rating of the circuit is determined by the size of the wiring.The maximum current capacity of common wire sizes are:#14 AWG: 15 Amps#12 AWG: 20 Amps#10 AWG: 30 AmpsCheck the amp rating of the water heater, and make sure that the wiring that supplies it is the corresponding size. NEVERconnect wire to a breaker set for a higher current than the wire is rated for (for example, do not connect #14 wire to a 20 Amp breaker). Allowing more current in a wire is asking for a fire.The HVAC Veteran

Which is larger in diameter12 AWG or 15 AWG wire?
12 awg is larger.
What does awg stands for?
AWG stands for American Wire Gauge. It is a standardized wire gauging system for the diameters of round, solid, electrically conducting wire.
Which wire is smallest in AWG?
The larger the AWG number the smaller the wire. 10 AWG wire can carry more current than 12 AWG wire.The wire sizes of 24 and 26 are the smallest that are used in the electrical.See related links below

50 amp breaker needs what wire size?
6 AWG wire
What is the difference between awg and swg?
AWG= American wire guage SWG = standard wire guage
