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.

∙ 10y agoThis is a voltage drop question. A voltage must be stated to answer this question.
I do not disagree with the previous answer but wanted to add that, generally, 14 gauge wire will carry 15 amps. If distance seems to be a problem and you don't have enough information to do an actual calculation, up-size the wire to 12 gauge.

As for the 100 feed, this is a voltage drop question and a voltage needs to be stated.

Will awg 10 wire carry 30 amps for 30feet?
Yes, a #10 wire will carry 30 amps for 30 feet. If the load is rated as continuous then the wire will have to be derated to 80% capacity which will leave you with 24 workable amps. If the load demands currents higher that 24 amps then you will have to go to the next wire size up which is a #8 which is rated at 45 amps.
