What size conduit and aluminum wire for a 400 foot run on a 120 240 volt system?
The key parameter in sizing wire is the current requirement. Once you know that you can look up value in a wire gauge table. The length of the run is important for longer runs because of the resistance of the wire itself. Aluminum wire requires a larger diameter than copper for the same current. Once you calculate the wire size you can then size the conduit.
Can you run 110 and 220 volt circuits in the same conduit?
Yes, 120 and 240 volts can be run in the same conduit.
What size of cable wire used for 500 kva transformer 240 volt 3 phase?
A 10 mm cable is most commonly used for a 500 KVA transformer, 240 volt, 3 phrase. The size of the wire that is used in a transformer is based on the voltage.
What wire size for 240 volt at 60 ft run?
The question is irrelevant if you don't include the amperage.
Does 240 volt have a neutral wire?
Yes <<>> In North America, a three wire 120/240 volt system uses a neutral wire. For 240 volts two "hot" wires are used with no neutral.

What wire size for 70 amp service at 240 volt?
For a 70 amp service at 240 volts, you would typically use a wire size of 4 AWG copper wire. This wire size is suitable for carrying 70 amps of current safely over a 240 volt circuit. Be sure to consult local electrical codes and regulations to ensure compliance with requirements in your area.
Can you run 110 and 220 volt circuits in the same conduit?
Yes, 120 and 240 volts can be run in the same conduit.

The question is irrelevant if you don't include the amperage.
Can you use 600 volt wire for 240 volt appliance?
Yes, you can use 600 volt wire for a 240 volt appliance. Just make sure that the wire meets the appropriate gauge size for the current draw of the appliance to avoid overheating and ensure safety.
Is a 220 volt electrical power wire the same as a 240 volt electrical power wire?
Yes 220 & 240 are considered the same.
Does 240 volt have a neutral wire?
Yes <<>> In North America, a three wire 120/240 volt system uses a neutral wire. For 240 volts two "hot" wires are used with no neutral.
Can you wire a 240 volt window ac from a 277 volt feed?
no
What wire size 240 volt 21 amps 150 foot run?
A #10 copper conductor will limit the voltage drop to 3% or less when supplying 21 amps for 150 feet on a 240 volt system.
Will splicing a 3 wire 240 volt compressor with a 4 wire 240 volt male end damage compressor motor?
It could if you don't get the terminals and motor wires on the correct terminals.
How do you run 4 prong 240 volt outlet?
you must run the proper size wire based on the ampacity needed, wire must have four conductors including the gound
