How many amps can a 2.5 sq mm wire conduct?
It will taken 8 amps <<>> The conversion of 2.5 sq mm wire to AWG is equal to a #12 wire. The ampacity of a #12 copper wire with an insulation factor of 90 degrees C is 20 amps.
How many amps will a 2 0 wire carry?
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.
What wire size is good for 100 amps?
# 4 copper wire short distance.
How many amps can a 8 gauge wire run coming from the ditribution panel to the sub panel 25 feet away?
A #8 copper wire with an insulation factor of 75 or 90 degrees C is rated at 45 amps.
What size ground wire is required for 80 amp service?
Ground is sized based on the size of the feeder wire and not the amps of the service! However, for a 600 amp service 1500MCM copper wire is one option (NEC 310.16) ;therefor, ground wire is 3/O copper (NEC 250.66) or another option is a two sets of 350 MCM copper wire then a #2 copper (since the biggest feeder wire is 350MCM).
How many amps can a number six wire hold?
55 amps on copper wire.
How many amps can a 2.5 sq mm wire conduct?
It will taken 8 amps <<>> The conversion of 2.5 sq mm wire to AWG is equal to a #12 wire. The ampacity of a #12 copper wire with an insulation factor of 90 degrees C is 20 amps.
How many amps will taken by 1sq mm alluminium wire?
1 mm2 aluminium wire is not easy to buy but 1 mm2 copper wire is rated at 10 amps. Since the conductivity of aluminium is 7/12 that of copper, 1 mm2 aluminium wire would be rated at 7½ amps max (the same amount of heat is produced per metre by a current of sqrt(7/12) times that for copper).
How many amps for 14 wire how many amps for 12 wire?
#14 copper wire is rated at 15 amps, # 12 copper is rated at 20. The maximum capacity of any wire is 80% so remember to derate your current by multiplying the rated current by .8

What size feeder wire for 100 amps?
Service wire for 100 amps requires AWG #3 copper.
How many amps will a number 2 copper wire hold?
Copper wires do not hold amps, they have a cross sectional area capacity to allow amperage to flow. In the electrical trade this is spoken of as "ampacity" of the wire. It is a combining of the two words amps and capacity. A # 2 copper wire with an insulation factor of 60, 75 or 90 degrees C is consecutively rated at 100, 115 and 120 amps.
How many amps can 8 gauge carry?
A #8 copper wire with an insulation rating of 90 degrees C is rated at 45 amps.
