A 12 gauge wire can support a load of approximately 2200 watts.
A 55 watt fluorescent light only pulls 0.4 amps. Lights can be installed on a 15 amp breaker using 14/2 wire. A maximum of 1440 watts is all that is allowed on a 15 amp circuit.
120 15 amp service ? 210 7 amp service ?

A 100 amp residential service requires a size #8 copper wire, it should be insulated in green.
on a 4000 watt amp the best gauge wire woul be between 2 and 0
2 or 4
You should use a 4 guage wire. There is a handy chart located at http://www.the12volt.com/info/recwirsz.asp which lists the proper wire size for differing wattages.
AWG # 10 wire on 30 amp circuit.
A 12 gauge wire can support a load of approximately 2200 watts.
Look on the heater and see what amps it is pulling. That will determine the wire size and breaker size. It must be on a dedicated circuit. 15 amps = AWG # 14 wire with 15 amp breaker 20 amps = AWG # 12 wire with 20 amp breaker 30 amps = AWG # 10 wire with 30 amp breaker 40 amps = AWG # 8 wire with 40 amp breaker
4 gauge
18 gauge
Look i have a 5500 watt power acustic amp and its saids not to use nothing under 0 gauge. So use that thicker wirer mean better performance. Try it!!

You could go with a 600 watt 2 ch amp or a 300 watt mono block amp, depends on what OHM the subs are, if they are 8 ohm you could wire them down to 4 ohm or if they 4 ohm u could wire them to 2 ohm, i have a 600.1 Boss amp and subs are wired together at 2 ohm and they BANG.
Fuses or breakers are used to protect the conductor to the load. A #14 wire conductor is rated for 15 amps. Most home circuitry is done with #14 wire. The minimum size breaker in an electrical panel is 15 amp so it looks like a 15 amp fuse or breaker can be used for a 100 watt light bulb.
