The wire rating for a # 12 wire is 20 amps. If you are going to continuously load the circuit you need to de-rate the wire by 80%. This brings the current down to 20 x .8 = 16 amps. The wire rating of a # 10 wire is 30 amps. 30 x .8 = 24 amps.
For a 225 amp 208 volt 3 phase circuit, you would typically need to use a 3/0 AWG copper wire or a 250 kcmil aluminum wire. Be sure to consult with local electrical codes and regulations to ensure compliance with specific requirements for your installation.
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.
For a 10 amp, 250 volt circuit, you should install a circuit breaker rated for at least 10 amps and 250 volts. A common option would be a single-pole, 10 amp circuit breaker designed for 240-250 volt applications. Be sure to check the specifications and compatibility with your specific electrical panel.
Yes you can. If you don't need 120 volts at the saw then you can use 2Conductor # 10 copper wire. FYI, don't know if you know it, but you don't count the bare ground wire in the conductor count. Anyways With # 10 wire you will get a 6 volt drop at the end of 250 feet which is 2.5% leaving you a working voltage of 234 volts.
If the wire shorted out, it's possible that other components in the range could have been damaged as well, such as fuses, circuit boards, or heating elements. It's important to have a professional inspect the range to determine the extent of the damage and make the necessary repairs. Using the range without addressing the problem could be a safety hazard.
A wire size of 250 MCM will limit the voltage drop to 3% over a distance of 200 feet.

If you use 250 or 300 MCM wire you will need a 2 1/2" weather head. If you use 300 MCM wire then you will need a 3" weather head.

No. There are no "adaptors". To get 240V from a 120v supply you use a 120-240V step up transformer. <><><> Clothes dryers, water heaters and and other high-power 240 volt appliances cannot be run on a transformer from a 120 volt circuit. They must be powered from a separate branch circuit that has the right size breakers, cable and socket outlet to suit the appliance.
In this situation, to calibrate a transmitter you need a power circuit and communicator circuit. The Hart communicator used in the calibration process is connected to the power source circuit in parallel. The power source circuit is the one that has ammeter, 250 Ohm resistor, and power source all connected in series. As the transmitter sends output mA, it creates volt drop across the 250 Ohm resister. Let's say the volt drop across the resistor was 1 Volt. Now, back to the Hart communicator. It is a load, meaning there will be a volt drop across the Hart communicator. Since it is in parallel with the power circuit, it is also parallel with the resistor. So, the 1 volt drop across the 250 Ohm resistor will also make 1 volt drop across the Hart communicator. Technically speaking, the 1 volt drop across the Hart communicator is only true if its resistor is also 250 Ohm. However, it does NOT matter what voltage drop is in the Hart communcator. It only sees the "relative" voltage drop changes to measure the changes in transmitter outputs.
Yes the rated voltage is a maximum. A 250 v cord might be slightly thicker than one for 125 v. <<>> The voltage rating of an electrical extension cord is the insulation factor of the cord. These cords come in two insulation ratings, 300 volts and 600 volts. If the voltage rating is within the parameters of the cord maximums then it is safe to use it on that voltage. The amperage of the cord is based on the wire size of the cord's conductor. The rating of 10 amps will fall within the #14 cord size. Remember the longer the cord the larger the wire size should be to prevent voltage drop at the connected load end.
Yes, this is a safe connection. A range is usually wire rated at 40 amps and the manufactures do not make a 40 amp rated receptacle. The code requires the next highest rated receptacle be used which is a 50 amp rating. This is why the range receptacle is rated at 50 amps. This receptacle is known as a 3 pole 4 wire grounding receptacle, 14-50R 125/250 volt. Black wire to terminal X, red wire to terminal Y, white wire to terminal W and ground wire to terminal G.
