Can you put 10-3 UF cable on a 50 amp circuit breaker?
A #10 copper conductor with an insulation rating of 90 degrees C is rated at 30 amps. The only time that a breaker larger that the load maximum capacity can used is in motor connections. A breaker can be used sized at 250% of the motor's full load amperage. In this case a 50 amp breaker can be used on a #10 conductor if the motor's full load amps falls within the amperage's of 20 - 22 amps.
What size breaker should be used for a double oven?
50 amp breaker wired with AWG # 6 wire.
What is the cable size for a 1500 kVA generator with cable length of 50 meters?
35 KVA generator using for load 100 meter length which cable need to used
Can 50 Amp breaker replace 45 Amp breaker?
Both a 45 amp and 50 amp breaker would require 6 AWG wire. So if you have 6 AWG wire and any devices like an outlet are rated at 50 amps or greater you are okay.
What can you run off a 50 Amp breaker?
Anything that does not pull over 50 amps.
