you will need wiring that is at least 10 amp rated wire or higher. If you really needed to ask you might want to call an electrician Electrician here, be the pump 120 volts or 240 volts a #14 wire will handle the situation. Longer runs of 75 feet you should go to a #12 wire to compensate for voltage drop. The pump should be on its own separate circuit with a 15 amp breaker. A two pole 15 amp breaker if the pump is 240 volts.
3/0 gauge
Use 8 gauge wire.
2 AWG.
AWG #6
At the service entrance you will need AWG 1/0 gauge.
It is not recommended to straight wire a sump pump to the breaker box without a dedicated circuit and proper wiring. This can cause safety hazards such as overheating, electrical fires, and damage to the pump. It is always best to consult a licensed electrician for proper installation.

The guage of wire for 20 amps is #12 copper.
2 AWG.
AWG #6
At the service entrance you will need AWG 1/0 gauge.
My heat pump was professionally wired when built in 2004. Wire is No. 4 AWG with 80 amp breaker
As a service entrance wire you need AWG # 3/0 gauge copper.
