A #3 copper conductor with a insulation factor of 75 or 90 degrees C is rated at 100 and 105 amps respectively.
A #4 aluminium conductor with a insulation factor of 75 or 90 degrees C is rated at 100 and 105 amps respectively.
What else can I help you with?
What wire size needed for 120 volt 3000 watt load?
AWG # 10 wire on 30 amp circuit.
What size wire is needed for a 180' run?
The wire size needed for a 180' run depends on the voltage, current, and type of installation. It is recommended to consult the National Electrical Code (NEC) and a professional electrician to determine the appropriate wire size to ensure safety and compliance with regulations.
What cable wire size for 1000 watts aircondition?
The only way to determine the cable wire size needed for a 1000 watt air conditioner is to find the load size. To get the load size you will need to use the formula Amps = Watts or Volts. With that being said, you will need a number 14 copper wire.
What size wire is needed for carrying 100 amps under ground?
For carrying 100 amps underground, typically a 2-gauge copper wire or a 1/0-gauge aluminum wire would be suitable. It's important to consult with a licensed electrician to ensure the correct wire size based on distance, voltage drop, and local electrical codes.
What pieces of information are needed before selecting a power supply?
The main piece of information needed is the load wattage or amperage that will be connected to the power supply. Once this is known the power supply of a greater size that the load should be chosen. Also with this information the size of the wires can be calculated from the power supply to the load. Too small a wire will create a voltage drop at the load end of the circuit. This will cause under performance of the load.
What is the type and size of cable gland or 2 core cable?
To answer this question the size of the cable or the amperage of the load is needed to calculate the correct wire size and connectors to fit the cable.
What wire size needed for 120 volt 3000 watt load?
AWG # 10 wire on 30 amp circuit.
What cable size needed for 3KW geyser?
You need to know the amperage requirement of the pump and then you can calculate the wire size.
What size wire is needed to operate a three quarter horsepower opener 250 ft from the breaker?
Wire size is calculated from the amount of current the load draws. More information is needed. Voltage and amperage will do fine.
What size wire is needed for a 180' run?
The wire size needed for a 180' run depends on the voltage, current, and type of installation. It is recommended to consult the National Electrical Code (NEC) and a professional electrician to determine the appropriate wire size to ensure safety and compliance with regulations.
What size wire do you need for a 208 volt 3 phase load that draws 10.5 amps?
The size of conductor needed will be a #14. It should be copper and have an insulation factor of 90 degrees C. The fact that it is a three phase load does not enter into the calculation of the wire size.
What cable wire size for 1000 watts aircondition?
The only way to determine the cable wire size needed for a 1000 watt air conditioner is to find the load size. To get the load size you will need to use the formula Amps = Watts or Volts. With that being said, you will need a number 14 copper wire.
How do you calculate mcb rating?
Circuit breakers are used to protect the conductor that is connected to it. The sizing of the conductor is based on the current of the load. As the connected load current is increased so must the wire size to accommodate that higher current. Therefore as the wire size increases so must the breaker size to accommodate the higher load current.
What is the formula to calculate length of the wire?
There is no formula to calculate the length of a wire. The length of a wire is determined by the distance from the power source to where the load is situated.
How to calculate the rating of the FUSE and Cable size. please tell the steps?
The calculations are worked backwards from the amps used by the load of the circuit. This will be used to select the correct size of the wire. Some stipulations are added depending of the ambient temperature, length from the supply or if the load is a motor. Fusing is then dependant on the wire size that is used.
What wire size for world's simplest motor?
Wire size is based on the amperage of the load. Without knowing what the motors's full load amperage is, an answer can not be given.
How do you calculate a cable size for a certain load?
for DC load and if its copper wire the cross section of the conductor wire is generally calculated as 1/4 th of the current rating . Eg for a DC load of 16 amp the copper conductor with 4 mm square is selected.
