Aluminum 4/0 wire car carry 180 amps at at 75 degrees Fahrenheit or 205 amps at 90 degrees. .
A 4-gauge aluminum wire can typically carry up to 70-85 amps of current for general household wiring applications. It is important to always consult with local electrical codes and a professional electrician to ensure safe and compliant electrical installations.
140 AMPS
50 amps.
If you mean 2/0 copper wire it is rated 175 amps. # 2 wire is 115 amps. If you are referring to 2.0 metric it is rated 15 amps.
A wire with the stats 14awg and 105 degrees Celsius can carry up to 39 amps.
In the electrical trade aluminum wire is equivalent to copper wire as it is also used to carry current. To carry the same current as copper wire aluminum wire is up sized to meet the same ampacity.
30 amps is how much a 10-2 wire will carry at 110 feet. 10 gauge wire is only good for thirty amps per the national electrical code. Using 80% of the breakers usage you will actually be getting only 24 amps.
A 12 AWG wire is typically rated for 20 amps in standard household wiring. At 240 volts, this wire can safely carry up to 20 amps of current.
Yes, a #10 wire will carry 30 amps for 30 feet. If the load is rated as continuous then the wire will have to be derated to 80% capacity which will leave you with 24 workable amps. If the load demands currents higher that 24 amps then you will have to go to the next wire size up which is a #8 which is rated at 45 amps.
Couple of things wrong here. 30 isn't a wire size. If you mean a wire that can carry 30 amps that would be # 10. Now it depends on how many # 10 wires you want to put into a conduit that governs the size of the conduit.
A zero gauge wire can typically handle up to 300 amps of current. However, the exact capacity may vary depending on the specific wire material and insulation used in the wire. It is important to consult the manufacturer's specifications for the wire you are using to determine the exact ampacity.
