A 2/0 copper conductor with an insulation factor of 90 degrees C is rated at 185 amps.
A motor feeder by code has to be 125% greater than the motors full load amperage. Therefore 175 x 125% = 218 amps.
A 4/0 copper conductor with an insulation factor of 90 degrees C is rated at 235
amps.

What is the minimum copper size wire for a 40HP motor?
That depends on the voltage of the motor and the circuit. A 40 HP motor is a fairly large motor. If you don't know the answer to your own question, it's unlikely that you're qualified to wire it. Better consult and/or hire a qualified commercial electrician.
What is the wire size for 160 ampere load?
For a typical use it would be 1/0 (one ought) wire in copper.
What is the minimum wire size used in a commercial building?
The minimum size wire that engineers spec for industrial and commercial installations is #12 and it usually is stranded not solid wire.
What is the minimum size wire allowed for a parallel run?
The minimum size wire that can be paralleled together stated in the electrical code book is a #3 copper conductor.
What size of wire use for 3kw motor 380volts 3phase?
How to calculate a cable size of 3kw motor
What size wire would you use to wire a motor that draws 16A from a circuit?
12
What is the minimum wire size for desk lamp cords?
Most lamp wire is parallel #16 conductors.
What size of wire should i use with a 50hz motor?
Depends on the current rating which should be on the motor.
What size wire is standard for 120-volt motor control system?
Wire size for any piece of equipment is based on the equipments load amperage. The higher the amperage that larger the wire size has to be. For motor loads the motor's amperage has to be increased by 25% to size the conductor. Example, a 10 amp motor load current plus 25% equals 12.5 amps. This would boost the wire size from a #14 to a #12 conductor. This additional amperage increasing is also used for transformer conductor sizing.
