A #6 RW 90 copper wire is rated at 65 amps. <><><> As always, if you are in doubt about what to do, the best advice anyone should give you is to call a licensed electrician to advise what work is needed. Before you do any work yourself,
on electrical circuits, equipment or appliances,
always use a test meter to ensure the circuit is, in fact, de-energized. IF YOU ARE NOT ALREADY SURE YOU CAN DO THIS JOB
SAFELY AND COMPETENTLY

What else can I help you with?
What wire size for 70 amp service at 240 volt?
For a 70 amp service at 240 volts, you would typically use a wire size of 4 AWG copper wire. This wire size is suitable for carrying 70 amps of current safely over a 240 volt circuit. Be sure to consult local electrical codes and regulations to ensure compliance with requirements in your area.
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.
Will a 14-2 gage wire work for a 240 volt 15 amp breaker?
No. You will need a 14/3 with Ground.
What size wire do you need for a 200 Amp 240 Volt 3 phase 4 wire service on a nonresidential building?
A 3/0 copper conductor with an insulation rating of 90 degrees C is rated at 225 amps.
What wire size needed for 120 volt 3000 watt load?
AWG # 10 wire on 30 amp circuit.
What wire size should be used for a 30 amp 240 volt circuit?
For a 30 amp 240 volt circuit, a wire size of 10 AWG should be used.
What is the appropriate wire size for a 240 volt 40 amp circuit?
For a 240 volt 40 amp circuit, the appropriate wire size is typically 8 AWG (American Wire Gauge) for copper conductors.
What wire size should be used for a 40 amp 240 volt circuit?
For a 40 amp 240 volt circuit, a wire size of at least 8 AWG (American Wire Gauge) should be used to ensure safety and proper functioning of the circuit.
What is the appropriate wire size for a 40 amp 240 volt circuit?
The appropriate wire size for a 40 amp 240 volt circuit is typically 8 AWG (American Wire Gauge) for copper wire or 6 AWG for aluminum wire. It is important to consult with a licensed electrician to ensure the correct wire size for your specific installation.
What wire size for 70 amp service at 240 volt?
For a 70 amp service at 240 volts, you would typically use a wire size of 4 AWG copper wire. This wire size is suitable for carrying 70 amps of current safely over a 240 volt circuit. Be sure to consult local electrical codes and regulations to ensure compliance with requirements in your area.
What is the recommended wire size for a 30 amp 220 volt circuit?
The recommended wire size for a 30 amp 220 volt circuit is typically 10 gauge wire.
What is the appropriate wire size for a 220 volt 30 amp circuit?
The appropriate wire size for a 220 volt 30 amp circuit is typically 10 gauge wire.
What is the appropriate wire size for a 220 volt circuit with a 30 amp capacity?
For a 220 volt circuit with a 30 amp capacity, the appropriate wire size would be 10 gauge wire.
What is the appropriate size of a breaker needed for a 240-volt circuit that requires a 50 amp breaker?
For a 240-volt circuit that requires a 50 amp breaker, the appropriate size of the breaker needed is 50 amps.
How do you add a 240 volt receptacle to 100 amp supply?
The 240 volt receptacle has to have an amperage rating. It is this rating that governs the wire size and breaker size to feed the circuit. The new two pole breaker will be inserted in the 100 amp distribution if space is available and connected to the new wiring that terminates at the new receptacle.
What is the appropriate wire size for a 220 volt circuit with a 40 amp load?
For a 220 volt circuit with a 40 amp load, the appropriate wire size would be 8 AWG (American Wire Gauge) copper wire.
What size aluminum wire needed for 30 amp at 240 volt for 500 feet underground?
A 1/0 aluminum conductor will limit the voltage drop to 3% or less when supplying 30 amps for 500 feet on a 240 volt system.
