Approximate overall diameter of the wire is 12.8 mm. If you are looking for metric wire size 95 mm2. 187500 circular mils.

4 AWG is required for 100 amp service. That converts to 25 mm2.
For service sizes of 100 amps and less a #8 bare copper conductor is required.
25mm cable
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.
# 4 copper wire short distance.
A #3 copper wire with an insulation factor of 75 and 90 degrees C is rated at 100 and 105 amps respectively.
100 kw is the power drawn by the load. to calculate the cable size you need to know the voltage. From that you can calculate the current. this decides the cable size. for example if the voltage is 400Volts then the current flowing in the circuit when the load is 100 KW will be 250 amps. (100,000/400). for 250 amps to flow with out causing excessive heating of the cable the cross sectional area of the copper cable should be 150 sq mm.for a round cross section the diameter will be roughly 15mm.
Service wire for 100 amps requires AWG #3 copper.
i have 200 hp motor what i need cable size in 100 feet distance
For service sizes of 100 amps and less a #8 bare copper conductor is required.
A kw, or Killowatt = 8.7 amps. So, 30 x 8.7 = approximately 260 amps. A wall Air conditioner draws about 12-15 amps. A refrigerator about 10-12 amps, a 100 watt light bulb .87 amps or less than 1 amp. Houses typically have either a 100 amp main breaker or, 150 and up. In the old days, 60 amps was common. Your answer is, as many houses as it takes to use 260 amps. If it's for a generator, as backup, 4-8 houses to keep the required things working. BUT use a large cable to run the power. 260 amp cable is about 3 ought size. Good luck.
#2 Copper with TW insulation is required for 100 amp loads #3 Copper with R90 insulation is rated at 105 amps.

12 AWG should be fine since resistance of wire is only about .16 ohms per 100 ft.
25mm cable
cable size for 90 amps 3 phase 440 v <<>> A #3 copper conductor with an insulation factor of 75 or 90 degrees C is rated at 100 and 105 amps respectively. If this feeder is for a motor connection the wire size has to be increased to 125% of the full load amps of the motor.
64 amps in less than 100 meter long
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.
