if your load draws a max of 15 amps then you would use 14-16 gauge wire. the lower the gauge the more current that is allowed to pass. there are charts that show max current for diameter of wire

∙ 13y agocable selection depends on load current because the current carrying capacity of cable will depend upon its cross sectional areai.e as the current is more the more will be its cross sectional area.....and secondly on the materiala of cable

What is a load cable?
Load cable generally means the final cable before the actual load. So on a clothes dryer the "Load Cable" would be the cable running from the outlet to the actual clothes dryer.
What is the type and size of cable gland or 2 core cable?
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.
What will happens to current when cable length increases?
With a constant voltage and increase in wire length will increase the end to end resistance and therefore the current will decrease.
What mm of cable is used for 10 ampere load?
1.6mm or 14awg
How to calculate power loss in power cable?
The length of the cable is determined by the distance from the center of the distribution panel to the center of the load.

How many sqmm cable you used for 513 hp load?
300sqmm cable i will use
You have three phase electric load of 29.3Kw what is thesuitable cable to feed this load if the distance between the supply and load is 270metres?
yes
What is the function of the live cable in an electrical installation?
A "live" cable is used to supply a voltage potential to a load.
What is the purpose of cable puller?
The purpose of a cable puller is to allow a system of wires to pull a heavier load. A cable puller will then be used to feed the cable through on this system.
What is the type and size of cable gland or 2 core cable?
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.
How does one determine how strong their cable is through cable attachments?
You can determine how strong your cable is through cable attachments by finding a weight load guideline online. It shows if the cable attachment is strong enough to support the cable.
What will happens to current when cable length increases?
With a constant voltage and increase in wire length will increase the end to end resistance and therefore the current will decrease.
Why sparking from lose cable joints?
simply because there is load on that source
How can you decide cable size for particular load?
refer to ANSI lor..
