That depends on the wire's insulation and the temperature rating of the devices you're connecting it to. This type of question usually means you aren't ready to do this yourself. Study some electrical material and the National Electrical Code and work this answer out for yourself, or call a professional electrician. If I were to give you an answer, you might attempt to do something you shouldn't be doing, and that may cost someone a shock, a home fire, or their life. At least see the applicable Article in the NEC, 310.16.
What else can I help you with?
What gauge wire for a welder?
The appropriate gauge wire for a welder typically depends on the welder's amperage rating and the distance from the power source. For most home welders, a 6 AWG or 8 AWG wire is common for 240V circuits, especially for units drawing 30 to 50 amps. For higher amperage welders, such as those over 50 amps, a 4 AWG or even 2 AWG wire may be necessary. Always consult the welder's manual and local electrical codes for specific requirements.
What is the required wire size for 100?
A 100 amp service requires that you use AWG 4 copper wire or AWG 2 aluminum wire.
What size wire is required for 325 amp service?
A 350 MCM copper conductor with an insulation rating of 90 degree C is rated at 350 amps.
What is the minimum size AWG copper conductor permitted for conductors with a 0 to 2000v voltage rating?
When you talk of voltage, you should be thinking of the insulation factor of the wire. By the same token when you talk of wire size, it is based on the amperage the wire is required to handle.
What gauge wire for 220 volts?
You need to know the amperage to size the wire. For 220 V at 20 A you would need 12 AWG. At 220 V at 30 A 10 AWG.
What is the maximum amperage rating for an 18 AWG wire?
The maximum amperage rating for an 18 AWG wire is typically around 16 amps.
What type wire is best for automotve DC current?
Copper or aluminum AWG. As for gauge and such, it depends on how much amperage you have running through it, and the length of wire.
What size wire is required to run 100 amp service 100 yards?
I would recommend you use AWG # 2 copper or AWG # 1/0 aluminum for that distance and amperage.
What is the amp rating of an 18 AWG wire?
The amp rating of an 18 AWG wire is typically around 16 amps.
What is the ampacity rating for 18 AWG wire?
The ampacity rating for 18 AWG wire is typically around 16 amps.
What is the current rating of an 18 AWG wire?
The current rating of an 18 AWG wire is typically around 16 amps.
What is the amp rating for 18 AWG wire?
The amp rating for 18 AWG wire is typically around 16 amps.
What is the amp rating for a 10 AWG wire?
The amp rating for a 10 AWG wire is typically around 30-40 amps.
What is the amp rating of 10 AWG wire?
The amp rating of 10 AWG wire is typically around 30 to 40 amps.
What is the maximum current rating for an 18 AWG wire?
The maximum current rating for an 18 AWG wire is typically around 16 amps.
What gauge wire for a welder?
