How many amps will 2-2-2-4 carry at 180 feet?

150 amps


What size wire to carry 30 amps 75 feet?

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.


Can a 14 AWG solid copper wire that's 15 feet long carry a load of 40 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.


How many amps will 14 gauge wire carry at 200ft?

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.


How many amps will 10-2 wire carry at 100 feet?

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.


What size aluminum wire needed for 30 amp at 240 volt for 500 feet underground?

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.


What size wire will carry 55 amps 75 feet?

AWG # 6 copper


What size wire needed for 100 amp service 700 feet away?

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.


What gauge wire for 208 volt 95 amp 200 ft?

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.


What wire size will carry 50 amps 200 ft 110 voltage?

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.


How many amps will 10-2 wire carry at 40 feett?

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.


What size wire is needed for a 150 foot 350amp 208V 3phase circuit?

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.
