A 2/0 copper conductor will limit the voltage drop to 3% or less when supplying 125 amps for 230 feet on a 240 volt system.
You need a 3 conductor #10 cable. A #10 wire is rated at 30 amps.
Wire is not sized by voltage. It is sized by current measured in amps. Some common copper wire sizes and their current capacities are: 15 amps -- 14 gauge wire 20 amps -- 12 gauge wire 30 amps -- 10 gauge wire 40 amps -- 8 gauge wire
No, a 10-gauge wire is not heavy enough for an electric stove. Stoves typically require a larger wire size, such as 8-gauge or 6-gauge wire, to safely handle the higher power demands of an electric stove. It's important to consult a qualified electrician to ensure the proper wire size is used for your specific stove.
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.

The guage of wire for 20 amps is #12 copper.
The amps that a four gauge wire will handle will depend with the thickness of the wire. If the wire is thin, the four gauge will handle 95 amps.
AWG # 14 is the smallest wire you can install in a home and it can only be used in living areas. It will carry 15 amps.
You need a 3 conductor #10 cable. A #10 wire is rated at 30 amps.
At the service entrance you will need AWG 1/0 gauge.
As a service entrance wire you need AWG # 3/0 gauge copper.
Wire is not sized by voltage. It is sized by current measured in amps. Some common copper wire sizes and their current capacities are: 15 amps -- 14 gauge wire 20 amps -- 12 gauge wire 30 amps -- 10 gauge wire 40 amps -- 8 gauge wire
The recommended wire gauge for carrying 80 amps of current is typically 6 AWG (American Wire Gauge).
No, a 10-gauge wire is not heavy enough for an electric stove. Stoves typically require a larger wire size, such as 8-gauge or 6-gauge wire, to safely handle the higher power demands of an electric stove. It's important to consult a qualified electrician to ensure the proper wire size is used for your specific stove.
An 18 gauge wire can typically handle around 16 amps of electrical current.
