A #4 copper conductor will limit the voltage drop to 3% or less when supplying 20 amps for a distance of 250 feet at 120 volts.
The ground wire in a two or three conductor #12 cable is a #14 bare ground wire.
To wire a 230 volt contactor with a 110 volt coil, you need to connect the 110 volt power supply to one terminal of the coil and the neutral wire to the other terminal of the coil. Ensure that the contactor is rated for use with a 110 volt control circuit. Additionally, verify the wiring diagram provided with the contactor for proper connection details.
No !
For a 200 ft distance, you should use at least a 8 gauge wire to minimize voltage drop and ensure safe operation for a 30 amp, 110 volt circuit. It is important to consult a licensed electrician to determine the specific wire size needed based on the load and local electrical code requirements.
A standard 110-volt wire typically consists of three components: a hot wire, a neutral wire, and a ground wire. The hot wire carries the electrical current to the device, the neutral wire completes the circuit by returning the current, and the ground wire provides a safety path for electricity in case of a fault. These components work together to ensure safe and effective electrical operation.

If it is a 110 volt light it can safely run on a 20 amp circuit with AWG # 12 wire.

It should work okay.
No. The 240V lamp will pop the circuit or fuse because the draw is higher than the supply.
NO - that is dangerous.
A breaker is based on wire size, as the breaker protects the wire and not the load. This is a voltage drop question. A #3 copper conductor will limit the voltage drop to 3% or less when supplying 60 amps for 110 feet on a 110 volt system.
No. You need to rewire the circuit from the electric panel.
The size breaker you use is determined by the size wire used in the circuit. If you use AWG #12/2 wire then use a 20 amp breaker. If you use AWG # 14/2 then use a 15 amp breaker.
