Copper wires do not hold amps, they have a cross sectional area capacity to allow amperage to flow. In the electrical trade this is spoken of as "ampacity" of the wire. It is a combining of the two words amps and capacity.
A # 2 copper wire with an insulation factor of 60, 75 or 90 degrees C is consecutively rated at 100, 115 and 120 amps.
A number 2 copper wire can typically safely carry around 90-125 amps of electrical current, depending on the insulation and installation conditions. It's important to consult the National Electrical Code or a qualified electrician to ensure the proper sizing and safety of the wire for your specific application.
The normal current capacity of 12 AWG copper wire is 20 amps.
A number six wire, also known as 6 AWG wire, can typically hold around 55-65 amps of current, depending on the insulation type and installation conditions. It is important to follow local electrical codes and consult with a qualified electrician to ensure proper sizing and safety.
According to the National Electrical Code (NEC), the ampacity of a 4 AWG THHN copper wire at 75°C is 85 amps, and 95 amps at 90°C.
A 2/0 copper conductor with an insulation rating of75 and 90 degrees Care rated at 175 and 185 amps respectively.
A 4/0 copper wire can typically carry about 230-260 amps of current. The actual ampacity can vary depending on factors such as installation method, temperature, and insulation type. It is important to consult the National Electrical Code (NEC) or a licensed electrician for specific ampacity ratings.

That depends on how much current (Amps) is flowing through the copper. The voltage you lose in the copper will always be (A) times (R). 'A' is the current (amps) in the copper. 'R' is the resistance of the copper. You can look that up in a product catalog, or measure it with a really good ohm-meter.
If you mean 2/0 copper wire it is rated 175 amps. # 2 wire is 115 amps. If you are referring to 2.0 metric it is rated 15 amps.
101 amps for chassis wiring and 37 amps for power transmission. This is for short lengths of wire.
60 amps
14 AWG of 105 degree Celsius copper wire is rated for twenty-five amps.
475 amps, per NEC 310-16. Note that this is a maximum; there are many reasons to derate the current carrying capacity of the wire.
