What size of wire is needed for 1500 amps?
There is no single conductor that will handle 1500 amps. For ease of handling, the conductors should be installed in parallel, triple or quad runs. For a parallel run, 2 - 2000 MCM with an insulation factor of 90 degrees C will give you a total ampacity of 1550 amps. For a triple run, 3 - 750 MCM with an insulation factor of 90 degrees C will give you a total ampacity of 1500 amps. For a quad run, 4 - 500 with an insulation factor of 90 degrees C will give you a total ampacity of 1580 amps.
What size of parallel wire for 900 amp service?
Conductors by code are only allowed to be loaded up to 80 percent. In this case an over size wire set will be higher that what the wire is rated for in the code book. A 600 MCM copper conductor with an insulation factor of 90 degrees C is rated at 455 amps. Paralleled together will give an ampacity of 910 amps. After the derate the maximum amperage allowed is 728 amps. So to get the full 900 amp the wire size has to be increased to a 1000 MCM copper conductor with an insulation factor of 90 degrees C which is rated at 585 amps. Paralleled this give you an ampacity of 1170 amps. After the derate the maximum amperage allowed is 1170 x 80% = 936 amps
Can Type TW cable be used in an area that has an ambient temperature of 658C?
There is no wire insulation on this earth that can stand a temperature of 658 degrees C (1268 degrees F.).
What is the ampacity of a 10 sq mm Aluminium wire?
A 10 mm squared conductor is equal to a #8 AWG. A #8 copper conductor with an insulation factor of 75 or 90 degrees C are both rated at 45 amps.
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 low in temperature should a commercial freezer be?
freezer temperature should be 8ca refrigerator for safety of food should be operated at 8 degrees or below to prevent contamination
What is the capacity of 8 gauge wire?
A #8 copper wire with an insulation factor of 75 or 90 degrees C has an ampacity of 45 amps. A #8 wire with an insulation factor of 60 degrees C has an ampacity of 40 amps.
What is the normal engine operating temperature for a 3306 cat engine?
The normal engine operating temperature, for a 3306 Caterpillar diesel engine, is 180 degrees. The engine should not be operated at temperatures above 200 degrees.
What is diesel engine normal operating temp?
Using a Mercedes 190D-2.2 as an example; Normal operating temperature is around 200 degrees Fahrenheit. Keep in mind that the clutch operated radiator cooling fan is designed to shut off when the coolant temperature reaches 212 degrees Fahrenheit or 100 degrees Celsius and below. SPKB..
If the temperature is -16 degrees and it drops 7 degrees what is the temperature?
- 23 degrees
What is the normal operating engine temperature?
That can vary per vehicle, it could be around 227 degrees However, remember that water boils at 212 degrees. The boiling point of automotive coolant varies slightly from that, but the system is pressurized, so boiling is "normally" not a problem. Most modern, fuel-injected automobiles have a normal operating temperature of 190 to 195 degrees. Older cars operated at about 180 degrees.
What is the temperature in degrees Fahrenheit when temperature in degrees celsius is - 15?

If a temperature is 32 degrees fraenheit what is the Celsius temperature?
The Celsius temperature of 32 degrees Fahrenheit would be 0 degrees.
What is the difference from a high temperature of 101 degrees and a low temperature of 20 degrees?
81 degrees
If the temperature is 95 degrees Fahrenheit outside what is the temperature in degrees celsius?
35 degrees Celsius.
If the starting temperature is 6 degrees and then rises 5 degrees what will be the temperature now?
11 degrees
What items have these temperature 85 degrees 2 degrees and 28 degrees?
The answer will depend on what temperature scale these are in.
