What is 20 percent off 30?
20% off of 30 = 24= 20% discount applied to 30= 30 - (20% * 30)= 30 - (0.20 * 30)= 30 - 6= 24
What times 30 to make 20?
The answer is 20/30 = 2/3.The answer is 20/30 = 2/3.The answer is 20/30 = 2/3.The answer is 20/30 = 2/3.
How much is 20 percent of 30?
20% of 30 is 6 ; 20 percent = .20 30 x .20 = 6
What is 20 minus 50?
50 - 20 = 30
What is 30 percent of 20?
To find 20 percent of a number, multiply the number by 0.2. In this instance, 0.2 x 30 = 6. Therefore, 20 percent of 30 is equal to 6.
Can 2 lengths of 14 Ga romex be used to make a 30 A circuit?
No, electrical wires can only be run in parallel on wire sizes 1/0 and larger. To supply a load of 30 amps you will need #10 wire and a 30 amp breaker.
Can 30 amp breaker be put in number 12 wire?
No, the National Electrical Code book (US) limits the current on a #12 AWG to 20 amps.
Should 20 AWG be used for a 30-amperes wire?
No. A #20 wire does not have the physical circular mils for a load of 30 amps. The wire would burn the circuit open.
What is the smallest copper wire size permitted by the national electric code for a 20 amp single phase electrical circuit?
I think you mean either what is the correct size or minimum wire size needed when a branch circuit is protected by a 20 A breaker. The size is 12 American Wire gauge (AWG). 14 AWG is used for 15 A circuit and 10 AWG for a 30 A breaker. The lower the gauge the larger the cross-section of the wire.
How do you determine the size of electrical conductors?
by the size of the load they are connected to. a general lighting circuit in a home should be 500 sq feet. an appliance will have it's connected load on the name plate. all electrical components [ plugs, cord, wire, anything electricity flows through] must be DERATED 20 %. if your load is 30 amp 240, add 6 amp[20%]to the 30, for 36amp. the closest wire size is #8.
What size circut breaker for 10-2 wire?
A #10 wire has the capacity for 30 amps. No breaker larger than 30 amps should be used to protect the circuit.
What wire size in a 20 amp 250 volt circuit?
The wire rating for a # 12 wire is 20 amps. If you are going to continuously load the circuit you need to de-rate the wire by 80%. This brings the current down to 20 x .8 = 16 amps. The wire rating of a # 10 wire is 30 amps. 30 x .8 = 24 amps.
Is 30 pounds larger than 20 kilograms?
No. 20 kilograms = 44 pounds 30 pounds = 13.608 kilograms
What is the maximum amps for 12 gauge wire?
It depends more on the insulation type not the voltage A very common wire type is THHN According to NEC (electrical standard popular in the USA) this type wire in size #12 is rated for 30 amps, but there is a footnote that states it can only be used for 20 amps maximum
What is amperage limit of 12 AWG stranded copper wire?
A #12 copper wire with an insulation factor of 75 or 90 degrees C is rated at 20 amps.A 12 AWG wire should not be connected to a breaker larger than 20 amps. The wire is capable of carrying that current load without overheating and causing fire.
How do we calculate the cable size for electrical installations?
Electrical wire size is directly dependant on the load amperage that is connected to it. The higher the load amperage, the larger the cross sectional area of the wire needs to be. The connected amperage to a conductor is determined by a group of electrical experts and their results are then written into the latest addition of the electrical code book of the country in which you live.
Can you splice a 10 ga wire to a 20 ga wire?
30 gauge wire is much "thinner" than 10 gauge wire. Hence, if you are using 10 gauge for an application requiring only 30 gauge, it will more than handle any current flow. However, if the application requires 10 gauge wire you cannot use 30 gauge wire.
