The ampacity or amp rating of all wire is rated by the size of the wire. NM (non-metallic sheathing) wire is no different. In household wiring 14 gauge wire must go on a 15 amp breaker/ 12 gauge goes on a 20 A and 10 gauge goes on a 30 Amp.
600 watts
The current (amp) capability is determined by the wire size in gauge, rather than the voltage rating stamped on the insulation. The most basic rating is 20 Amps for 12 gauge and 15 Amps for 14 gauge wire; however, it can get more complex than that for long runs of wire or for wires run through conduit with other wires. Hire an electrician if this sounds bewildering.
You should not exceed 80% of the breaker rating for a continuous load. Therefore, the continuous load should not exceed 16 amps.

12 ga, 20 amp. 14 ga, 15 amp. 16 ga, 10 amp.
Under normal household conditions it is 15 amps.

its casing will dry out, crack and catch fire, or it will crack off and cause arking, which can cause a fire... ultimately, check the gauge size of the circuit and make sure it corresponds to the proper amperage of breaker, if this is all good, you need a bigger cord(the gauge size must be sufficient for the intended tool/device.. a drill that has a 16 amp rating needs a 12 gauge cord whereas a 12 amp drill needs only a 14 gauge cord.

According to my Chilton repair manual , fuse # 16 is a 15 amp fuse for the fuel gauge on a 1994 Ford Ranger
The amperage rating of any wire or conductor is determined by its size or gauge. It has nothing to do with whether it is a two, three or four conductor wire. For example, in basic residential wiring, a 14 gauge wire is rated at 15 amps, a 12 gauge wire is rated at 20 amps, a # 10 is rated for 30A and so forth.
Depends on the size of the service. 100 amp service will require 3 gauge, 150 amp service will require 1/0 gauge, and 200 amp service will require 3/0 gauge.
