For a distance of 8 feet and a current of 52 amps, a 6-gauge copper wire would be suitable to safely carry the load while minimizing voltage drop. It's important to adhere to local electrical codes and standards when selecting and installing wiring for any electrical system.
A 16 gauge wire can typically carry around 10-13 amps at 120V AC over a short distance like 25 feet. It's important to follow standard safety practices and consult with an electrician to ensure that the wire gauge is appropriate for your specific application and local electrical code requirements.
The size of current that a 1.5mm wire can carry depends on factors like the material of the wire, temperature, and insulation. Generally, a 1.5mm wire can typically carry around 10-15 amps of current in normal household applications. For specific projects or applications, it's important to check the wire's current-carrying capacity based on the relevant specifications and standards.
A #16 copper conductor is not a wiring size that is used in homes. This is because the smallest breaker for residential use is rated for 15 amps. A #16 copper conductor is only rated at 13 amps. For a load of 13 amps over 100 feet a #12 copper would be required.
8 gauge wire can typically carry up to 40 amps at 120 volts AC over a distance of 25 feet. However, it is important to consult the specific wire manufacturer's specifications and consider other factors such as temperature, installation conditions, and local electrical codes when determining the ampacity of the wire for a particular application.
AWG # 6 copper
Yes, a #10 wire will carry 30 amps for 30 feet. If the load is rated as continuous then the wire will have to be derated to 80% capacity which will leave you with 24 workable amps. If the load demands currents higher that 24 amps then you will have to go to the next wire size up which is a #8 which is rated at 45 amps.
A # 14 copper conductor will be fine to carry 8 amps at 120 volts. This size conductor is rated at 15 amps.

10 guage
30 amps is how much a 10-2 wire will carry at 110 feet. 10 gauge wire is only good for thirty amps per the national electrical code. Using 80% of the breakers usage you will actually be getting only 24 amps.
Couple of things wrong here. 30 isn't a wire size. If you mean a wire that can carry 30 amps that would be # 10. Now it depends on how many # 10 wires you want to put into a conduit that governs the size of the conduit.
You will need a 40 amp breaker using AWG # 8 wire running it a distance of no more than 50 feet.
To answer this question a voltage must be given.
For a distance of 8 feet and a current of 52 amps, a 6-gauge copper wire would be suitable to safely carry the load while minimizing voltage drop. It's important to adhere to local electrical codes and standards when selecting and installing wiring for any electrical system.
Wire is sized by the amperage that it is allowed to legally carry. To answer this question the amperage that you need at the garage must be stated.
