The ampacity of 6 AWG aluminum wire typically ranges from 40 to 55 amps, depending on the installation conditions and the type of insulation used. In general, for residential applications with typical insulation, it is common to consider a capacity of around 55 amps. Always refer to the National Electrical Code (NEC) or local regulations for specific guidelines and adjustments based on the installation environment.
5 amps
Depends on how far you want to carry that load.For short distances, 6 AWG THHN rated at 90C, used at 30C ambient, is permitted for up to 75 Amps when in a 3-conductor cable or conduit.In free air, it may be "capable" of handling up to 105 amps.NEC Table 310.16 and 310.17.
# 6 will carry about 40 amps more than a number 12
A #6 copper conductor with an insulation factor of 75 or 90 degrees C both have an amp rating of 65 amps. If the #6 conductor is connected to a breaker having a 90 degree C rating then the conductor can carry an amperage of 75 amps
A #6 aluminum conductor will limit the voltage drop to 3% or less when supplying 20 amps for 200 feet on a 240 volt system.
A #6 aluminium conductor with an insulation factor of 90 degrees C is rated for 55 amps.
5 amps
AWG # 6 copper
The distance that a 6 gauge wire can carry 50 amps depends on factors like voltage drop and wire insulation. In general, a 6 gauge wire can carry 50 amps for up to 60-70 feet without significant voltage drop. However, it is recommended to consult with a professional electrician for accurate calculations and safety considerations.
A#18 copper conductor with an insulation factor of 90 degrees C is rated at 6 amps.

at 230v it will use 5 to 6 amps
You need the formula: Amps * Volts = Watts But you get to do the math.
To calculate amps, use the formula: Amps = Watts / Volts. In this case, 6 watts / 24 volts = 0.25 amps. So, 6 watts at 24VDC is equivalent to 0.25 amps.
To find the amperage, you can use the formula: Amps = Watts / Volts. In this case, with 72 Watts and 12 Volts, you would have 6 amps of current.
