Need to run 30 amps about 100 feet what copper wire?
This is a voltage drop question. A voltage at 30 amps needs to be stated to answer the question.
How many amps will 14 gauge wire carry at 200ft?
A #14 copper wire with an insulation factor of 90 degrees C is rated at 15 amps. To answer your question for voltage drop at 200 feet a voltage needs to be stated. Assuming the voltage of 120 is used to maintain 15 amps at the distance of 200 feet a #6 copper conductor will limit the voltage drop to less that 3 percent. Assuming the voltage of 240 is used to maintain 15 amps at the distance of 200 feet a #10 copper conductor will limit the voltage drop to less that 3 percent.
What wire size will carry 50 amps 200 ft 110 voltage?
Because of voltage drop, 4 awg copper would be recommended for that distance run. <<>> A #1 copper conductor will limit the voltage drop to 3% or less when supplying 50 amps for 200 feet on a 110 volt system.
What size wire to run 400 ft from main panel need 60 amps?
Use AWG # 4 copper and you will have a 2.6% voltage drop which is acceptible.
What is the correct wire size to install with a distance of 200 feet for a 100 amp single phase underground service?
This is a voltage drop question. A #1 copper conductor will limit the voltage drop to 3% or less when supplying 100 amps for 200 feet on a 240 volt system. Or a 3/0 copper conductor will limit the voltage drop to 3% or less when supplying 100 amps for 200 feet on a 120 volt system. In your question you sis not stipulate what the working voltage is.
What size wire for 110 volt 20 amp circuit 700ft?
I would recommend no smaller than #8awg copper. This is derived by 8awg copper ampacity of 40 amps multiplied by 80% load rating to get 32 amps. Then calculating for voltage drop over this distance shows a drop of 5.9 volts or 2.5% which is negligible so not accounted for. So like i said no smaller than #8awg copper.
What size copper wire for a run of 500 feet in parallel for a resident with a load of 600 amps single phase 240 volt?
This is a voltage drop question. A 500 MCM copper or 750 MCM aluminium conductor will limit the voltage drop to 3% or less when supplying 300 amps for 500 feet on a 240 volt system. Paralleling these conductors will allow the rating to be increased to 600 amps.
How many amps will 10-2 wire carry at 100 feet?
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.
What size wire do you need to run 1000 feet and still have a minimum of 60 amps?
Looks like You need to run #10 to get 10 amps at 600 feet. You will have a voltage drop. You might only have aprox. 107.676 volts at the end of the run. You will do a little better if you use strand wire. Good luck.
What size wire to carry 30 amps 75 feet?
This is a voltage drop question. To answer the question about distance a voltage must be stated. That said a #10 copper conductor with an insulation factor of 75 or 90 degrees C are both rated at 30 amps.
How does voltage drop effect the amps?
Yes. When the voltage drops and the power requirement (watts) stays the same, the amperage goes up.
How many amps will 8 stranded copper wire carry at 200 ft?
A #8 copper conductor with an insulation factor of 75 or 90 degrees C is rated at 50 and 55 amps respectively. When distance comes into the equation, the question becomes a voltage drop question and a supply voltage over the 200 feet has to be stated.
