How many watts is a 240 volt 20 amp fuse rated for with 12 gauge wire?
4800
Can you splice 18 gauge wire and 12 gauge?
Try it see what happens... >:l Can you splice them? Yes. Should you splice them? No. It really all depends on what your over current protection is. If your #12 wire is on a 20 amp breaker, your #18 wire can melt and cause a fire without tripping the breaker. I do not know what is the amp rating of 18 gauge wire. -- Sparkfighter
How do you add a 240 volt receptacle to 100 amp supply?
The 240 volt receptacle has to have an amperage rating. It is this rating that governs the wire size and breaker size to feed the circuit. The new two pole breaker will be inserted in the 100 amp distribution if space is available and connected to the new wiring that terminates at the new receptacle.
Is it safe to use 10 gauge wire on a 20 amp breaker for a microwave?
No, 10 gauge wire requires the use of a 30 amp breaker. A 20 amp breaker is only used on 12 gauge wire.
What is the proper size wire cord for a 12 amp vacuum sweeper 120 volt?
16 gauge is rated at 13 amps, but I would use 14 gauge which is rated at 15 amps just to be safe.
What is the 16 gauge amp rating?
That is 10 amp wire.
What is amp rating for 16 gauge wire?
10
What is the amp rating of NM wire?
The ampacity or amp rating of all wire is rated by the size of the wire. NM (non-metallic sheathing) wire is no different. In household wiring 14 gauge wire must go on a 15 amp breaker/ 12 gauge goes on a 20 A and 10 gauge goes on a 30 Amp.
What is the amp rating of 4 gauge wire?
80 amps
What size wire in a 40 amp 12 volt circuit?
Use 8 gauge wire.
What is the amp capability of 600 volt wire?
The current (amp) capability is determined by the wire size in gauge, rather than the voltage rating stamped on the insulation. The most basic rating is 20 Amps for 12 gauge and 15 Amps for 14 gauge wire; however, it can get more complex than that for long runs of wire or for wires run through conduit with other wires. Hire an electrician if this sounds bewildering.
What size wire for an 80 amp 220 volt circuit?
# 3 gauge
What gauge wire for 240 volt 30 amp 55 ft?
10 gauge will work fine.
How many watts is a 240 volt 20 amp fuse rated for with 12 gauge wire?
4800
What gauge wire to run 40 amp 220 volt circuit 60 feet in residence?
first off. it has to be UF type wire, and is usually 12 gauge or 10, depending what you are using it for.
What is the amp rating for 14 gauge wire 100 ft .?
Under normal household conditions it is 15 amps.
What gauge of wire do i need for my 220 volt 100 amp breaker?
For a 220 volt 100 amp breaker, you would typically need a wire gauge of 2/0 AWG (American Wire Gauge) or larger. It is recommended to consult with a professional electrician to ensure the proper gauge is used for your specific installation.
