What size conductor is needed to carry 25 amps 120 volt AC over 400 feet?
A #4 copper conductor will limit the voltage drop to 3% or less when supplying 25 amps for 400 feet on a 120 volt system.
What size ground wire for a 400 amp panel in Quebec?
This answer is taken from the CEC. Table 17 states minimum size of grounding conductors. For a service conductor drawing 400 amps a #3 copper grounding conductor is needed. Also see rules 10-206, 10-700 and 10-812 if you have access to the code book.
What gauge wire will you need for a 400 watt amp?
To answer this question a voltage needs to be stated. The formula needed to find the amperage is I = W/E. Amps = Watts/Voltage. Once the amperage is found, the proper size conductor to handle that current can be established. Without knowing the amperage on 400 watts a good guess would be a #14 wire. This wire size is good up to 1440 watts at 120 volts.
What size conductors are needed to run a 400 foot residential underground electric service?
Need to know what size service is going to be installed at the end of the run.
What size ground wire is needed for 400 amp service entrance?
For a 400 amp service entrance, a grounding conductor of at least 3/0 AWG (American Wire Gauge) copper or 250 kcal (thousand circular mils) aluminum is required, in compliance with electrical codes and regulations. However, specific requirements may vary based on local codes and the specific conditions of the installation, so it's important to consult with a qualified electrician or refer to the applicable building codes for precise guidance.

Is number 3 copper ground conductor a common conductor size?
Answer for USA, Canada and countries running a 60 Hertz supply service.CEC states that a #3 bare copper conductor is a common grounding conductor size for a 200 amp service panel and it is the minium size for service raceway and service equipment of 400 amps.

What size power cable is needed for 30KW 440V 3phase 50Hz induction motor?
Use this formula to find amperage when kW is shown. Amps = kW x 1000/1.73 x Volts x pf. Use a power factor of .85 for the formula. Once the current is calculated re-ask the question for cable size for the calculated current.
What size spak plug is needed for a 2007 Honda trx 400 ex?
It takes an NGK DPR8Z
What is the wire size needed to feed a 400 amp service with parallel copper?
It depends on the length of the run
What size conductors are needed to run a 400 foot residential underground electric service?
Need to know what size service is going to be installed at the end of the run.
What size wire needed for 200 amp service 400 feet away direct buried single phase 240 volt 3 wire?
Assuming you are working with 240v, you need 4/0 copper conductors.

How much current does 300 sq mm cable carry?
A 228 sq mm conductor equates to 450 MCM. A conductor of 450 MCM is not a standard AWG wire size. A standard 400 MCM will carry 380 amps. A standard 500 MCM will carry 430 amps. Difference between 400 and 500 MCM amperage's is 50 amps. Transposing between the two amperage's of 50 amps will be 380 + 25 = 405 or 430 - 25 = 405 amps. This is a very rough calculated answer for the question.
