That answer assumes the A/C is to be installed in a residential installation, because the service voltage is 240.
The length of wire-run should also be factored-in when deciding the correct wire size.
To get the right answers refer to the Wiring Codes or Regulations for your locality. (Town/State.)

As always, if you are in doubt about what to do, the best advice anyone should give you is to call a licensed electrician to advise what work is needed.
Before you do any work yourself,
on electrical circuits, equipment or appliances,
always use a test meter to ensure the circuit is, in fact, de-energized.

What else can I help you with?
What kind of wire for double pole for air condition?
For a double pole air conditioning unit, use a 240-volt wire with a rating that matches the amperage requirement of the unit. Typically, a 10-gauge wire with a 30-amp rating is suitable for most residential air conditioning systems. Be sure to follow local electrical codes and consult with a licensed electrician for installation.
What gauge of wire do i need for my 220 volt 100 amp breaker?
For a 220 volt 100 amp breaker, you would typically need a wire gauge of 2/0 AWG (American Wire Gauge) or larger. It is recommended to consult with a professional electrician to ensure the proper gauge is used for your specific installation.
What is the amp capability of 600 volt wire?
The amp capability of a 600 volt wire depends on its gauge or thickness. For example, a 12-gauge wire can typically handle around 20 amps, while a 10-gauge wire can handle around 30 amps. It is important to consult the wire's specifications or a professional electrician to determine the specific ampacity for your application.
Can you use 600 volt wire for 240 volt appliance?
Yes, you can use 600 volt wire for a 240 volt appliance. Just make sure that the wire meets the appropriate gauge size for the current draw of the appliance to avoid overheating and ensure safety.
Can you use 12 gauge wire with 600 volt capacity to hook up an 300 amp 220 volt dryer?
No, a 12 gauge wire is not sufficient to handle a 300 amp load for a dryer. You would need a wire with a much higher ampacity rating, likely in the range of 2/0 or 3/0 gauge wire to safely handle that current. It is important to always match the wire size to the amperage of the appliance to ensure safety.
What is the recommended AC wire size for a residential air conditioning unit?
The recommended wire size for a residential air conditioning unit is typically 10 or 12 gauge wire.
What kind of wire for double pole for air condition?
For a double pole air conditioning unit, use a 240-volt wire with a rating that matches the amperage requirement of the unit. Typically, a 10-gauge wire with a 30-amp rating is suitable for most residential air conditioning systems. Be sure to follow local electrical codes and consult with a licensed electrician for installation.
Which gauge wire is a 12v?
The gauge of wire that is 12 volt is 18, 14, and 16.
What is the recommended wire size for a 220-volt electrical circuit?
The recommended wire size for a 220-volt electrical circuit is typically 10-gauge wire.
What wire should be used for a 220-volt electrical connection?
For a 220-volt electrical connection, a wire with a gauge of at least 10 AWG (American Wire Gauge) should be used to ensure proper safety and functionality.
What size wire in a 40 amp 12 volt circuit?
Use 8 gauge wire.
What is the recommended wire size for a 220 volt circuit according to the 220 volt wire size chart?
The recommended wire size for a 220 volt circuit according to the 220 volt wire size chart is typically 10 gauge wire for a circuit with a maximum of 30 amps.
What gauge wire for 240 volt 30 amp 55 ft?
10 gauge will work fine.
What is the recommended wire size for a 30 amp 220 volt circuit?
The recommended wire size for a 30 amp 220 volt circuit is typically 10 gauge wire.
What is the appropriate wire size for a 220 volt 30 amp circuit?
The appropriate wire size for a 220 volt 30 amp circuit is typically 10 gauge wire.
What size wire for an 80 amp 220 volt circuit?
# 3 gauge
What is the appropriate wire size for a 220 volt circuit with a 30 amp capacity?
For a 220 volt circuit with a 30 amp capacity, the appropriate wire size would be 10 gauge wire.
