What size wire and breaker do you need for a 5000 watt garage heater?
Look on the heater and see what amps it is pulling. That will determine the wire size and breaker size. It must be on a dedicated circuit. 15 amps = AWG # 14 wire with 15 amp breaker 20 amps = AWG # 12 wire with 20 amp breaker 30 amps = AWG # 10 wire with 30 amp breaker 40 amps = AWG # 8 wire with 40 amp breaker
What size amp breaker you need for a ac and a heater unit?
The sizing of a breaker is dependant upon the size of the wire it protects. The size of the wire is dependant upon what the load current in amps is. Without the amperage and wattage and the voltage of the appliances an answer can not be given. W = A x V, Amps = Watts/ Volts.
What size wire do you need to run to an air conditioner that has a maximum breaker size of 40 amps and a minimum circuit size of 25.3 amps?
Number 10 thnn copper wire.
How many automotive amps can 30 foot strand of copper wire carry?
Need to know the wire size.
What size wire and breaker for 8 kw heater?
If your power source is 120 V then 8000/120 = 66.7 Amps. If operated at 240 V then it is 33.3 Amps. In the first case you would need 3 AWG and in the second 8 AWG.

What size copper wire do you need for 240 volts 16 amps at 150ft?
10 gauge
What size breaker and wire for 2000 watt heater?
A 2000 watt heater draws 8.3 amps on a 240 v supply, so the cutout should be set to 10 or 12 amps. <<>> In North America a 2000 watt baseboard heater will be fed with a two pole 15 amp breaker. A two wire cable of #14 copper will be used to connect the supply voltage to the heater.
What size USE wire is needed for 200 amps?
As a service entrance wire you need AWG # 3/0 gauge copper.
What wire size do you need for a 3phase 80amp 60hz 220v load amp 68?
A #4 copper conductor with an insulation factor of 75 or 90 degrees C is rated at 85 amps. This size wire will also be the same for a load amperage of 68 amps as the next wire size smaller #6 is only rated at 65 amps.
What size wire do you need for 650 watts?
To answer this question a voltage needs to be stated. Wire is sized by the amount of amperage the load takes. W = Amps x Volts. Amps = 650/ volts.
