What size copper wire is equal to 0 aluminum?
Copper wire gauge sizes are not equivalent to aluminum wire gauge sizes. The gauge sizes for copper and aluminum wires are different due to their differing electrical conductivity properties. It is not possible to directly convert a copper wire size to an equivalent aluminum wire size.
What is the minimum wire size for a 30Amp breaker?
The minimum wire size for a 30Amp breaker is typically 10 AWG for copper wire and 8 AWG for aluminum wire, according to the National Electrical Code (NEC). This wire size is necessary to safely carry the amount of current without overheating.
What size wire for a 750 ft run using under ground wire in conduit?
Depends upon how many amps you need at the load and whether you're using copper or aluminum or some other material, and how much voltage drop your load can withstand during startup inrush.
What size of wire should be used for 60Hz?
The frequency has no direct relationship to the size of wire. Wire is sized as to the amount of current a load draws in a circuit.
How to compute the size of wire with respect to the distance from circuit breaker to the load side?
To compute the size of wire based on the distance from the circuit breaker to the load side, you need to consider the voltage drop along the wire due to its resistance. Use voltage drop calculations to determine the appropriate wire size that will ensure a permissible voltage drop over the distance. Factors like current carrying capacity, material of wire, and other environmental considerations also play a role in determining the wire size. Consulting national electrical codes or using online calculators can help in selecting the right wire size.
What is the recommended wire size for aluminum conductors to handle a 100 amp electrical load?
The recommended wire size for aluminum conductors to handle a 100 amp electrical load is typically 2 AWG (American Wire Gauge).
What wire size will carry a 40 amp load?
AWG # 8
What size wire to run 225' underground?
Depends on the load it will carry which you failed to list.
What size wire to run 100 ft undergr?
Depends on the load it will carry which you failed to list.
In selectecting the wire size for a line cord you should remember that?
The wire size is large enough to carry the load current and that the cord is properly voltage rated.
What is the aluminum wire equivalent to?
In the electrical trade aluminum wire is equivalent to copper wire as it is also used to carry current. To carry the same current as copper wire aluminum wire is up sized to meet the same ampacity.
What size of aluminum wire 3 stranded is used to run electric from house to dock?
Wire is sized by the amperage of the load. Without knowing what the load amperage,the voltage and whether the load is three phase or single phaseat the dock, an answer can not be given.
Is a 15 amp 2 wire outlet wired with copper wire?
Yes it is wired with copper 2 wire is also known as 14/2 wire is use for switches,outlets,lights. and a 15a outlet should only be on a 15a breaker the main power feed to your meter to your panel is aluminum and can take more of a load than copper. In the US, 15 amp receptacles can be installed on 20 amp circuits if there is more than one receptacle on that circuit. Copper wire can carry a larger load than aluminum wire of the same size.
What is the recommended conduit size for 4/0 aluminum wire?
The recommended conduit size for 4/0 aluminum wire is 2 inches.
What size copper wire is equal to 0 aluminum?
Copper wire gauge sizes are not equivalent to aluminum wire gauge sizes. The gauge sizes for copper and aluminum wires are different due to their differing electrical conductivity properties. It is not possible to directly convert a copper wire size to an equivalent aluminum wire size.
Where can you get a fuseable link?
a fuseable link is just a length of wire that will carry a certain load. check the awg (american wire guage) ratings and install that size wire at the power source of that circuit
What is the recommended wire size for a 100 amp aluminum service?
The recommended wire size for a 100 amp aluminum service is typically 2 AWG (American Wire Gauge).
