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.
I would use AWG #4 for that run in alluminum. You will have a 3.8% voltage drop which is acceptible.
12 gauge underground wire or if you think you will ever add any devices to this circuit use 10 gauge.
At the service entrance you will need AWG 1/0 gauge.
As a service entrance wire you need AWG # 3/0 gauge copper.
4/0 Aluminum or 2/0 Copper type USE.
For a 200A service, the recommended copper wire gauge for service entrance cable is typically 2/0 AWG (American Wire Gauge). This wire size is able to handle the ampacity required for a 200A service safely and efficiently. It is always recommended to consult with a licensed electrician to determine the appropriate wire size for your specific installation.
# 6 copper wire.

12 gauge underground wire or if you think you will ever add any devices to this circuit use 10 gauge.

10 gauge wire will only run up to 30 amps
As a service entrance wire you need AWG # 3/0 gauge copper.
Yes, 8 gauge wire is thicker and stronger than 10 gauge wire. The lower the gauge number, the thicker the wire is. Therefore, 8 gauge weld wire fencing would be stronger and more durable than 10 gauge wire fencing.
