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.

∙ 11y agoThe 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.
It should work okay.

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

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.
In a 110V system, the neutral wire is typically colored white in the United States. It is the wire that completes the circuit and carries current back to the power source. It is important to always follow safety guidelines when working with electrical systems.
