∙ 10y agoA 5kw or 5,000 watt heat strip will use 20.8 amps if wired to a 240 volt circuit. This would require a dedicated circuit using AWG # 10 wire on a 30 amp breaker.

What part would you need to buy if your window won't roll up or down and there's a wire that has snapped?
If it's just a broken wire, you need the correct size 'butt connector'. Get the heat-shrink type, strip both wire ends, crimp on the connector, shrink the connector tubing ends with a lighter (BBQ lighters work really well). Done. If you need to add wire to make the connection, you will need at least two butt-connectors.

Is there a coating you can put on electrical wiring to reduce the temperature?
Not that I have ever heard of. Electricity produces heat and heat is the cause of most electrical problems. The wire is heating because too much current is being conducted for the size of the wire. You need to either replace the wire with something larger or add another wire. The temperature of the wire has nothing to do with the coating, the heat is being generated inside the wire when excessive current is passing through.
Is the striped color on wire the actual color of the wire?
No, example- If the wire is blue with a white strip, (which is your remote wire for the amp turn-on) the wire is blue, the strip is not the color.
How do you make a fused jumper wire?
To make a fused jumper wire you need a couple parts: In-line fuse holder. Solder. Soldering iron. Wire. Which ever clips you want. I used alligator clips. and heat shrink. What you want to do is take the fuse holder, Strip the ends back a little bit (Most of the times they come pre-stripped), next, take a chunk of your wire and then strip it the same amount. Once you do that, you need to solder them together (I typically twist them then solder them) Once soldered together, slip a piece of heat shrink over the end of the wire to cover the soldered joint, then shrink it with a heat gun or a lighter. Be careful as it'll get hot! Do that for the other side of the fuse holder. Then add your clips on the ends. With that, you have your fused jumper wire.
What size wire do you need for 440 three phase welder on an eight foot run?
The wire size depends on the amperage, not the voltage. The fact that the welder runs on 440 volts does not affect the wire size! You need to ask this question instead: What size wire do you need for a three phase welder on an eight foot run if the nameplate amps are 45A?
What size of electrical wire need to pass 50A?
Use AWG #6 wire.

How do you replace a stereo in a 2002 impala?
you need to buy the wire harness for the car itself then you need to connect it to the stock wire harness, after that, you need to go ahead and strip it and wire it to your new CD players harness and then you will need to screw in and install the new head unit.-Shocker
