An 18 gauge wire can typically handle around 16 amps of electrical current.
An 18 gauge wire can typically handle around 16 amps of electrical current.
A 14 gauge wire can typically handle up to 15 amps of electrical current.
The recommended wire gauge for carrying 80 amps of current is typically 6 AWG (American Wire Gauge).
10 gauge wire will only run up to 30 amps
Generally 40 amps continuous or 50 amps surge is safe.
15 amps
To carry 300 amps of current, you would need a very large wire size, likely in the range of 3/0 or 4/0 gauge wire. It's important to consult with an electrician to ensure the wire size meets building codes and safety standards for such high amperage.
