There is no one wire that is rated for 1800 amps. The service will have to be a quad parallel of the conductors. A 600 MCM conductor with an insulation factor of 90 degrees C is rated at 475 amps. This conductor paralleled into four equal lengths will give an ampacity of 1900 amps for each leg of the service.

200 amp service in chicago uses 3 aught.
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 wire is needed for carrying 100 amps under ground?
To calculate the wire size, a system voltage is needed.
What wire size needed for 150 amp service at 325 feet Copper or Aluminum?
This is a voltage drop question. To receive an answer to this question the voltage of the service must be stated.
What size service ground is needed for a 350 parallel service?
From the question it is hard to establish whether the service size is 350 amps or the service conductors are 350 MCM in parallel. If the service is 350 amps, the grounding conductor is #3 bare copper wire. Parallel 350 MCM conductors will allow for a 600 amp service. The grounding conductor for a 600 amp service is a #1 bare copper wire.
What size wire is needed for 1600 amp service?
4 sets of 750 mcm aluminum. Or four parallel runs of 600 MCM copper.
What size ground wire for 100a service?
A 100 amp residential service requires a size #8 copper wire, it should be insulated in green.
What size service underground wire for 60amp at60 feet?
# 6 copper wire.
What size wire for 200 amp service with a 60 foot run?
This can't be answered without knowing the voltage, and ground is not the same as neutral, in AC circuits, which I'm assuming this is.
What size wire is needed for a 180' run?
To answer this question the voltage and load amperage is needed.
