#10 wire is good for 30amps; however it is wise and sometimes required to use an 80% load factor. If you need 30amps continuously you would want to use #8 wire, which is good for 40amps. #8 wire could safely run 32amps continuously, 40amps x 80% = 32amps.
AWG # 10 wire on 30 amp circuit.
The question is one of voltage loss. The goal is to have enough ampacity in the selected conductors to run the maximum load with only 3 percent voltage drop, caused by the resistance inherent in the wires. Plug your numbers into a voltage drop calculator online and see what pops out. At 120 volts you would get 3.1 percent drop using 3/0 wire. At 240 volts you could drop down three sizes to #1 AWG for 3.1 percent at max load, or 1/0 size for 2.5 percent drop at max load. Assuming copper wire at normal conditions of temperature.
The wire size needed for a 180' run depends on the voltage, current, and type of installation. It is recommended to consult the National Electrical Code (NEC) and a professional electrician to determine the appropriate wire size to ensure safety and compliance with regulations.
The only way to determine the cable wire size needed for a 1000 watt air conditioner is to find the load size. To get the load size you will need to use the formula Amps = Watts or Volts. With that being said, you will need a number 14 copper wire.
For a 30 amp load at 12 volts DC over a distance of 34 feet, a wire size of at least AWG 8 would be recommended to minimize voltage drop and ensure efficient power delivery. It is important to consult with local electrical codes and standards to ensure compliance with regulations.

Wire size is calculated from the amount of current the load draws. More information is needed. Voltage and amperage will do fine.

The size of conductor needed will be a #14. It should be copper and have an insulation factor of 90 degrees C. The fact that it is a three phase load does not enter into the calculation of the wire size.
The length of wire needed to make a slinky can vary depending on the size and number of coils. A standard slinky typically contains about 67 feet of wire.

To answer this question the size of the cable or the amperage of the load is needed to calculate the correct wire size and connectors to fit the cable.
Wire size is based on the amperage of the load. Without knowing what the motors's full load amperage is, an answer can not be given.

For a 220 volt circuit with a 40 amp load, the appropriate wire size would be 8 AWG (American Wire Gauge) copper wire.
For a 25 amp load at 220 volts over a distance of 75 feet, you will need a 10-gauge wire to ensure safe and efficient electrical conductivity. This wire size allows for minimal voltage drop and meets the necessary ampacity requirements for the circuit. Make sure to consult local electrical codes and regulations before installation.
