For a 30 amp circuit running 100 feet, you would typically need to use at least a 10-gauge wire to ensure safe and efficient electrical flow. It's important to consult local building codes and regulations to ensure compliance.
No, a 12 gauge wire is rated for 20 amps, which matches the breaker size. It is not recommended to use a wire that matches the breaker size as it can result in overheating and potentially cause a fire hazard. Consider using a thicker wire, such as 10 gauge, for the 20 amp breaker to ensure safety for the sub panel.
Might depend on your local codes, but here it is 6 AWG wire. <<>> A #4 copper conductor will limit the voltage drop to 2% or less when supplying 60 amps for 100 feet on a 230 volt system.
For a 100 watt 12 volt lamp, you should use a wire gauge size of at least 18 AWG to ensure it can handle the current without overheating. It's always best to refer to the manufacturer's recommendations for the specific lamp you are using.
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.
To answer this question a voltage has to be stated.
AWG # 4 copper.
12 gauge underground wire or if you think you will ever add any devices to this circuit use 10 gauge.
It is not clear what you're asking. First of all, 15 gauge wire is not readily available, if at all. Wire gauges 14 and 16 are. Beyond that, you seem to be asking what length one would need to wire 20 sockets for either 100 watts each or total in an area of 4026. There are two problems. Is it 100 watts per socket or 100 watts total? And, in an area of 4026 ...square feet? ...square meters ...square kilometers? ...square centimeters? ...which is somewhat of a problem in itself. This question is in "Residential Electricity", and as such one does not specify lengths of wire required by what area is required to be lighted up, but by how many light fixtures (sockets) would be required and how far apart they would be.

Depends on the thicknes of the wire. About three pounds, according to this site: http://www.rjleahy.com/Store/wire/cwi.htm See second chart on left... 10 ga copper wire is about 33 feet per pound.
It depends upon the length of the circuit, but for 50 feet or less a 10 gauge wire should be fine. A short length (15 feet), you could use 12 gauge. If you double the length to 100 feet, you should use 8 gauge. A rule of thumb is to drop down a gauge for every length that is doubled. There are wire size charts available on the internet. Some can be conservative such as recommending #8 for 50 ft or less at 30 amps. It is better to be conservative than to run too much amperage on a smaller wire that can cause a fire. As a general rule, 12ga wire can be used in house circuits for 20amps or less. 16ga wire can be used for 15 amps or less such as lighting circuits. That is considering lengths of less than 100 feet.

A 100 foot fish tape and wire lubrication will be needed to make this wire pull.
