This is a voltage drop question and a voltage needs to be stated.
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.
The recommended gauge for 100 amp wire made of aluminum is typically 2 AWG (American Wire Gauge).
The recommended gauge of wire for a 100 amp electrical circuit is typically 4 AWG (American Wire Gauge).
12 gauge underground wire or if you think you will ever add any devices to this circuit use 10 gauge.
The recommended gauge size for a 100 amp aluminum wire installation is typically 2 AWG (American Wire 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.
The appropriate wire gauge for a 100 amp electrical circuit is typically 3 AWG copper wire.
The recommended gauge size for a 100 amp cable is typically 3 AWG (American Wire Gauge) for copper wire.
The recommended wire size for a 100 amp breaker is typically 2-gauge copper wire or 1/0-gauge aluminum wire.
For a 100 amp subpanel installation, it is recommended to use a 3-gauge wire.
The recommended gauge for copper wire to handle a 100 amp load is typically 3 AWG (American Wire Gauge).
