Which wire is used to install a double oven and a stove?
Normally older ovens required a AWG #8 wire on a 40 amp breaker. On a modern double oven I would recommend you install AWG #6 on a 50 amp breaker. That way you are safe and will not have to worry about the breaker tripping. It will cost a little more but is worth it in the long run.
What is the amp size of a 8 wire?
The amp size of a wire is determined by its gauge, not the number of wires. An 8-gauge wire is typically rated for around 40-60 amps, depending on the type and insulation of the wire.
What size ground wire is needed for 20 amp?
For a 20 amp circuit, a 12-gauge copper ground wire is typically recommended. This wire size can safely handle the current and provide proper grounding for the circuit.
What is the wire size for a 35 amp breaker to a ac unit?
You will need to use #8 wire.
Can you replace a 13 amp 125 volt appliance cord with a 15 amp 125 volt cord?
Yes, no problem at all going to a larger ampacity of wire. Larger size wire yes, smaller size wire no.
