What type of wire gauge should be used for a 20-amperes circuit?
Yes, 12 AWG is good for 25 Amps if copper wire.If aluminum wire, then good for 20 Amps.
How many watts can handle 18 AWG wire carry?
A#18 copper conductor with an insulation factor of 90 degrees C is rated at 6 amps.
What is amp rating for 8 to 14 gauge aluminum wiring?
There is no rating for #14 wire in the electrical code book. This is because #12 aluminium wire is rated at 20 amps and that is the minimum of home wiring circuit wiring in aluminium. It is not, if at all, used anymore. #10 at 75 or 90 degree C is rated both at 30 amps. #8 at 75 or 90 degree C is rated both at 45 amps.
How many amps is a 14 AWG of 105 degree C wire rated for?
14 AWG of 105 degree Celsius copper wire is rated for twenty-five amps.
How many amps can a 12 awg wire carry at 240 volts?
The voltage has nothing to do with the capacity of a wire to handle current. A #12 copper wire with an insulation factor of 60, 75 or 90 degrees C is rated at 20 amps.
What gauge wire is needed for 200 feet with 110 volts and 50 amps?
6 AWG will handle 50 amps with a voltage drop of about 4 volts. If you go to 4 AWG and limit to 50 amps your voltage drop will be 2.5 volts.
What type of wire gauge should be used for a 20-amperes circuit?
Yes, 12 AWG is good for 25 Amps if copper wire.If aluminum wire, then good for 20 Amps.
What is the name of the wiring on the 380 volts system?
depends on the amperage. 14 AWG for 15 amps, 12 AWG for 20 amps, 8 AWG for 50 amps.
How many watts can handle 18 AWG wire carry?
A#18 copper conductor with an insulation factor of 90 degrees C is rated at 6 amps.

How many amps is a 14 AWG of 105 degree C wire rated for?
14 AWG of 105 degree Celsius copper wire is rated for twenty-five amps.
What size wire do you need for 15 amps?
AWG 10.
What size of cable is needed for 1000 amps?
A parallel run of 750 MCM AWG conductors will handle 1000 amps. if we want 1000amps to flow, 250sqmm cable is enough.
What size wire is required for 325 amp service?
A 350 MCM copper conductor with an insulation rating of 90 degree C is rated at 350 amps.
How many amps can a 12 awg wire carry at 240 volts?
The voltage has nothing to do with the capacity of a wire to handle current. A #12 copper wire with an insulation factor of 60, 75 or 90 degrees C is rated at 20 amps.
How many amps is 26 awg wire rated for?
Copper wire current ratings assume 10 amps per mm2 for currents up to a few amps. 26 AWG wire has a cross sectional area of 0.13 mm2 so this logic says 1.3 amps.
What size Aluminum wire is used for ground in breaker box?
For a 100 Amp breaker panel it would be 2 AWG. For 150 Amps it would require 2/0 (2 ought) aluminum wire.
