What size wire to carry 8 amps at 120 volts?
A # 14 copper conductor will be fine to carry 8 amps at 120 volts. This size conductor is rated at 15 amps.
What size ground wire needed for 75 amps at 208 volts?
#8 copper
What size copper wire do you need for 240 volts 16 amps at 150ft?
10 gauge
What size wire do you need for 60 amps 400ft 220 volts?
Use AWG # 3 copper.
Can you replace 2.5 Amps 125 Volts with 10 Amps 125 Volts?
You physically can but sit will be unsafe, and will not protect the circuit because it will not blow when it should. Only replace a fuse with the same size fuse.
What size wire for 250 amp service with a 175 foot run?
4/0 (4 ought) in copper will handle 250 amps. The voltage drop at 175 ft. is about 2.14 volts which should be okay.
How do you solve for the size of wire when the given is kva?
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.
How many amps does a 2000 watt heater draw at 240 volts?
Amps * Volts = Watts So, Watts / Volts = Amps 2000 / 240 = 8.333 Amps You should run the circuit on a two pole 15 Amp breaker, using 14 AWG, 2 conductor (plus ground) wire, just so you have a little safety factor in the circuit size.
What wire size do you use for a 760 watt amp?
Wire is sized by the amperage applied to the wire. To answer this question a voltage needs to be stated. I = W/E. Amps = Watts/Volts. A #14 copper conductor is rated at 15 amps.
What effect are there when resistance is increased in the size of the current?
Current is inversely proportional to resistance. If you double the resistance, you halve the current. Ohm's Law: Volts = Amps * Ohms Solve for Amps: Amps = Volts / Ohms
Are fuses sized on amps and volts?
Fuses are rated in Amps. Although the physical size of a fuse is to do with volts; the further the terminals are apart the less likelihood there is of 'sparkover' between them.
What is the wire size for 50 feet distance 120 volts 12 amps?
For a 50 feet distance with 120 volts and 12 amps, you should use a 14-gauge wire to ensure electrical safety and efficiency. A 14-gauge wire is rated to handle up to 15 amps for household wiring applications.
