Depends on the size of the service. 100 amp service will require 3 gauge, 150 amp service will require 1/0 gauge, and 200 amp service will require 3/0 gauge.
25mm cable
14 gauge will handle it with a 15 amp breaker. If you use 12 gauge use a 20 amp breaker.
No, 10 gauge wire requires the use of a 30 amp breaker. A 20 amp breaker is only used on 12 gauge wire.
Use 6 gauge
For a 250 amp load, a cable size of at least 3/0 AWG (American Wire Gauge) or 70mm^2 is recommended. For a 160 amp load, a cable size of at least 1/0 AWG (American Wire Gauge) or 50mm^2 is recommended. It is important to consult local electrical codes and regulations to ensure compliance.
#10 cable is no good for 120 amps, you need #2 cable, and it can be used at a distance of 250 ft.
First determine the amperage of the circuit . e. g 15 amp or 20 amp ( typical household circuit ratings) the gauge is 14 and 12 respectively. The lower the gauge number the higher the current handling capability.

The amp rating of a 500 MCM (thousand circular mil) cable can vary depending on the insulation type and installation conditions. Generally, a rough estimate for a 500 MCM cable with THHN insulation in a typical installation would be around 380-400 amps. However, it is recommended to consult the manufacturer's specifications or a qualified electrician to determine the exact ampacity for a specific application.
on a 4000 watt amp the best gauge wire woul be between 2 and 0
Yes, the larger cable can carry more load (current) than the other cable.
A #14 copper conductor is rated at 15 amps.
It depends upon the length. 10 gauge is rated for 30 amps to about 100 ft. However if running longer than 100 feet, you should drop down a gauge to #8.
The amp rating of NM (Non-Metallic) wire varies depending on the gauge of the wire. For example, a 14-gauge NM wire typically has an amp rating of 15 amps, while a 12-gauge NM wire has an amp rating of 20 amps. It is important to consult local building codes and regulations to determine the appropriate wire gauge and amp rating for specific applications.
