The North American electrical code states that a conductor for a motor must be rated at 125% of the motor's full load amperage. 125% x 50 = 63 amps.
A #6 copper conductor with an insulation factor of 75 or 90 degrees C is rated at 65 amps respectively.

What is the amp size of a 8 wire?
40 amp
What size wire do you need for 100 amp feeder single phase running 350' away?
To answer this question a voltage must be given.
What size aluminum wire to feed a 100 amp panel 240 ft away?
To answer this question the voltage value and whether the system is three phase or single phase needs to be given.
What size ground wire is needed for 20 amp?
A #14 wire will do fine for grounding a 20 amp device. That is the size of the ground wire in a 2 conductor # 12 wire building cable.
How would you make a patch cord to go from a 220V 30-amp 4-wire generator to run a 220V 20-amp 3-wire portable compressor?
Identify the neutral wire on the generator. This will be the unused conductor to run the compressor. The ground and line1, line 2 are all that are needed.
What size wire for 240 volt 1 phase compressor?
If you have to ask here, you shouldn't be trying to wire in a 20A compressor. You will require a special circuit for the voltage and current with an independent breaker. Check your local code for the wire size or talk to a qualified electrician.
What wire size for 100 amp single phase 3 wire commercial service?
2 copper
What size wire to use with 50 amp 480v 3 phase so cord size?
6
What is the electrical rating for a Quincy QT-54-5-60VE air compressor?
Assuming your power supply is 230 volts, single phase: Full load amp draw = 21, circuit breaker = 50, minimum wire size = 10.

You want to run power from your home you have a 200 amp in the house to a garage that you recently built you have 110 and 220 outlets The only 220 you plan on running is a small air compressor What?
The voltage for the air compressor is needs to come from a double (two) pole breaker. The size of the breaker needs to be 250% of the full load amps of the compressor. The wire size to the compressor has to be 125% of the full load amps of the compressor.
Is neutral wire same size as hot in 200 amp panel?
Yes, they are the same size wire.
What is amp size for 14 wire?
15 amps.
