CEC - #2 copper, RW90 insulation, 120 amps. #2 aluminium, RW90 insulation, 95 amps. he is not talking about Amplifiers. he is talking about amperes, the unit of measure that indicates how much electricity can flow through a wire. and it depends on the length of the wire, but 2 gauge wire will handle about 208 amps.
depends on how big the amps are

A #8 copper conductor with an insulation factor of 60, 75 and 90 degree C is rated at 40, 45 and 45 amps respectively.
A # 2 copper wire with an insulation factor of 90 degrees C is rated at 120 amps. Code states that conductors can only be continuously loaded to 80%. 120 x .8 = 96 amps.
A #2 copper conductor with an insulation rating of 75 or 90 degrees C is rated at 115 and 130 amps respectively.
A 12 AWG wire is typically rated for 20 amps in standard household wiring. At 240 volts, this wire can safely carry up to 20 amps of current.
The number of automotive amps a 30-foot strand of copper wire can carry depends on the gauge (thickness) of the wire. For example, a 30-foot strand of 10-gauge copper wire can typically carry up to 40-50 amps for automotive use, while a 30-foot strand of 12-gauge wire might be limited to around 25-30 amps. It's important to consult wire ampacity tables and consider factors like temperature and voltage drop to ensure safe and effective performance.
A 14-gauge wire can typically carry up to 15 amps of current, while a 12-gauge wire can handle up to 20 amps. It's important to follow the manufacturer's guidelines and electrical codes when determining the maximum current for a specific wire size.
A 4-gauge aluminum wire can typically carry up to 70-85 amps of current for general household wiring applications. It is important to always consult with local electrical codes and a professional electrician to ensure safe and compliant electrical installations.
