∙ 10y agoA 1/0 aluminum conductor will limit the voltage drop to 3% or less when supplying 30 amps for 500 feet on a 240 volt system.
Because of voltage drop, 4 awg copper would be recommended for that distance run. <<>> A #1 copper conductor will limit the voltage drop to 3% or less when supplying 50 amps for 200 feet on a 110 volt system.
A #1 copper conductor will limit the voltage drop to 3% or less when supplying 95 amps for 200 feet on a 208 volt system. This size will allow the conductor to be loaded to 76 amps. 95 x 80% = 76 amps Conductors are only allowed to be loaded to 80% or their rated capacity. If you need the full 95 amps then you would need to use a wire with a rating of 120 amps. 120 x 80% = 96 amps. A 1/0 copper conductor will limit the voltage drop to 3% or less when supplying 120 amps for 200 feet on a 208 volt system.
A 500 MCM copper conductor will limit the voltage drop to 3% or less when supplying 350 amps for 150 feet on a 208 volt system.
30 amps is how much a 10-2 wire will carry at 110 feet. 10 gauge wire is only good for thirty amps per the national electrical code. Using 80% of the breakers usage you will actually be getting only 24 amps.
For a 100 amp service 700 feet away, you would typically use 3/0 AWG aluminum wire to account for the voltage drop over that distance. It is important to consult with a licensed electrician or local building codes to determine the exact specifications required for your specific situation.
150 amps
A 16 gauge wire can typically carry around 10-13 amps at 120V AC over a short distance like 25 feet. It's important to follow standard safety practices and consult with an electrician to ensure that the wire gauge is appropriate for your specific application and local electrical code requirements.
This is a voltage drop question. To answer the question about distance a voltage must be stated. That said a #10 copper conductor with an insulation factor of 75 or 90 degrees C are both rated at 30 amps.
No, a #14 conductor is only rated for 15 amps. If the wire insulation is rated for 90 degrees C and is connected to a 90 degree rated circuit breaker the ampacity can be raised to 25 amps.
A #14 copper wire with an insulation factor of 90 degrees C is rated at 15 amps. To answer your question for voltage drop at 200 feet a voltage needs to be stated. Assuming the voltage of 120 is used to maintain 15 amps at the distance of 200 feet a #6 copper conductor will limit the voltage drop to less that 3 percent. Assuming the voltage of 240 is used to maintain 15 amps at the distance of 200 feet a #10 copper conductor will limit the voltage drop to less that 3 percent.
A #16 copper conductor is not a wiring size that is used in homes. This is because the smallest breaker for residential use is rated for 15 amps. A #16 copper conductor is only rated at 13 amps. For a load of 13 amps over 100 feet a #12 copper would be required.
A 1/0 aluminum conductor will limit the voltage drop to 3% or less when supplying 30 amps for 500 feet on a 240 volt system.
