Answer for USA, Canada and countries running a 60 Hertz supply service.

An 18 kW range is a very big range. Presuming that the source voltage is 240 volts it will draw 18000/240 = 75 amps. You will need 3 - #4 wires to feed it. A #4 copper wire with an insulation factor of 75 or 90 degrees C is rated at 85 amps.

Before you do any work yourself,
on electrical circuits, equipment or appliances,
always use a test meter to ensure the circuit is, in fact, de-energized
