Yes, you can, you just can't have 100 amps running through the box at one time. For instance, I have a 450 amp box in my house, but all the breakers add up to 900.
# 4 copper wire short distance.
A #3 copper wire with an insulation rating of 75 or 90 degrees C is rated at 100 and 110 amps consecutively.
The V stands for volts and A is amps. If for example you have a 12kVA device and are running off a voltage of 120 volts then Amps = 12000/120 = 100. You then use the calculated amps in a wire size table to get the correct size.
Yes, # 4 AWG copper and 100 amps is the max.
A #3 copper wire with an insulation factor of 75 and 90 degrees C is rated at 100 and 105 amps respectively.
Service wire for 100 amps requires AWG #3 copper.
If you have 100 amp wire, you can use it for a 60 amp circuit, or for any circuit of 100 amps or less. But if you have a 60 amp circuit, 60 amp wire is thinner and cheaper than 100 amp wire.
# 4 copper wire short distance.
Volts * Amps = Watts 12 V * ?Amps = 100 Watts OR ? Amps =100W/12V OR 8.33 Amps = 100W/12V Use a 10Amp fuse inline and you can get by with 16Ga wire.

A #3 copper wire with an insulation factor 90 degree C is rated at 105 amps.
A #3 copper wire with an insulation rating of 75 or 90 degrees C is rated at 100 and 110 amps consecutively.
To calculate the wire size, a system voltage is needed.
The burners will most likely be 240V. By keeping the range at 240 volts it will use less amps that at 120V. Say a range and oven is rated at 9000 watts. Watts = amps x volts. 9000/240V = 37.5 amps. 9000/120V = 75 amps. As you can see at 120 volts the amperage is double over 240 volts. You would need a 100 amp breaker and #4 wire to accomodate the range on 120 volts.
This is a voltage drop question. A voltage at 30 amps needs to be stated to answer the question.
The V stands for volts and A is amps. If for example you have a 12kVA device and are running off a voltage of 120 volts then Amps = 12000/120 = 100. You then use the calculated amps in a wire size table to get the correct size.
Each hot leg to the neutral wire of the service has the ampacity of 200 amps, that is why 3/0 wire is required. A 3/0 copper wire with an insulation factor of 90 degrees C is rated at 210 amps.
