How many 10 awg thwn fit in half inch emc conduit?
11
How many feet of 4 awg copper number 1 wire is 1 pound?
7.914 feet
Which has the greatest cross sectional area?
9 AWG
What is ampere rating of a fuse used to protect a 5.5 mm squared conductor?
The equivalent mm2 cross-sectional area of a 5.26 mm2 conductor is a # 10 AWG conductor. A # 10 AWG conductor size is protected by a 30 amp fuse.
What is larger 12 gauge wire or 20 gauge wire?
Yes, a #12 AWG conductor has a greater diameter than a #14 AWG conductor. A #12 conductor has an ampacity of 20 amps whereas a #14 conductor only has an ampacity of 15 amps.
What is the largest solid ( nonstranded ) conductor listed in the wire tables?
10 awg <<>> #8 hard drawn copper conductor
What is the largest size solid conductor permitted to be installed in a raceway?
10 AWG can be solid. 8 AWG and larger should be stranded. 2008 NEC 310.3 2011 NEC 310.106(C)
Which gauge CONDUCTOR is suitable for 20 amps current?
AWG 12/2 with ground.
What size conductors are needed for 800 amp service?
For an 800 amp service, typically 4/0 AWG conductors are needed for the hot conductors and 2/0 AWG for the neutral conductor in a 3-phase system. However, it is recommended to consult with a qualified electrician to determine the exact size based on the specific installation requirements and local electrical codes.
How many watts can handle 18 AWG wire carry?
A#18 copper conductor with an insulation factor of 90 degrees C is rated at 6 amps.
What size wire needed for 6amps fuse?
AWG 16
What size ground wire for a 400 amp panel in Quebec?
This answer is taken from the CEC. Table 17 states minimum size of grounding conductors. For a service conductor drawing 400 amps a #3 copper grounding conductor is needed. Also see rules 10-206, 10-700 and 10-812 if you have access to the code book.
does 8 gauge wire need to be be purchased as separate wires?
No, there are many manufacturers and distributors who supply 8 AWG wire in multi-conductor cables in stock or custom combinations.
What size wire is required for 325 amp service?
A 350 MCM copper conductor with an insulation rating of 90 degree C is rated at 350 amps.
What size wire do you need for a 150 amp breaker?
A #6 copper ground conductor would be needed.
