A #3 copper wire with an insulation rating of 75 or 90 degrees C is rated at 100 and 110 amps consecutively.
Service entrance wire should be AWG #3 copper.
At that distance you will have a voltage drop of 81.25 volts if you use the recommended #6 wire on a 240 volt, 100 amp single phase circuit. Therefore I recommend you contact you electric utility and let them figure the voltage drop and the size wire required to safely run this distance. Using too small a wire can damage the electronics at the end of the run.
The size of the wire is stated by its gauge under American Wire Gauge. Six gauge wire is size 6 AWG.
Wire size is governed by amperage not voltage. Voltage is an insulation factor when talking about wire. Add up the amperage of fixtures you want in the circuit. Once that is found then the size of the wire can be calculated.
Use what is called bell wire or thermostat wire.
Service entrance wire should be AWG #3 copper.
The recommended wire size for a 100 amp electrical circuit is typically 3 AWG copper or 1/0 AWG aluminum.
A #3 copper conductor with an insulation factor of 90 degrees C is rated at 115 amps.
The recommended gauge for 100 amp wire in a residential electrical installation is typically 3 AWG copper or 1 AWG aluminum.
At that distance you will have a voltage drop of 81.25 volts if you use the recommended #6 wire on a 240 volt, 100 amp single phase circuit. Therefore I recommend you contact you electric utility and let them figure the voltage drop and the size wire required to safely run this distance. Using too small a wire can damage the electronics at the end of the run.
You can divide a three phase service into (3) single phase circuits providing you have a 4th neutral wire.
100amp
The recommended ground wire size according to the NEC Ground Wire Size Chart is based on the amperage of the circuit.
For a 100 amp 12VDC circuit, you would typically use 2/0 AWG (00 AWG) wire to ensure proper conductivity and safety. This size of wire is rated for up to 150 amps in most applications, providing a good margin for the 100 amp load. Be sure to consult local electrical codes and standards for specific requirements.
Another 10 amp fuse. If you use anything larger, you can fry your equipment, cause a fire, and so on. If this fuse is blowing all the time, there is a short in the component or wire.
Wire size is the gauge (thickness of wire) hazard is almost anything not wired correctly.
The recommended wire size for a range installation is typically 8-gauge wire.
