many wires are. such as 14-2 Romex. 12-2 Romex. Any THHN wire of any size. This list is very long. If you have a speific application then you need to check the NEC 2005 Table 310.13 Conductor Applications and Insulations.

What wire size do you need for a 3phase 80amp 60hz 220v load amp 68?
A #4 copper conductor with an insulation factor of 75 or 90 degrees C is rated at 85 amps. This size wire will also be the same for a load amperage of 68 amps as the next wire size smaller #6 is only rated at 65 amps.
What size of wire should be used for 60Hz?
The frequency has no direct relationship to the size of wire. Wire is sized as to the amount of current a load draws in a circuit.
What is the US equivalent of European 4x2.5 sq mm HO7RN-F and could US 10 2 be substituted for the European cable to hardwire a 240V 27A appliance?
If you want an American plug to power a 30A 220V device look at a dryer outlet. It will have an extra neutral conductor, but it is standard. Otherwise, you can go with a 220V 30A TwistLok plug. All the home centers [I've been to] carry these plugs. 10ga wire is heavy enough for 30A runs under 75ft, though for a 27A appliance you should consider a 40A breaker with 8ga wire.
What gauge wire is needed to supply a 220v 50' 30amp service?
10 AWG.
How would you make a patch cord to go from a 220V 30-amp 4-wire generator to run a 220V 20-amp 3-wire portable compressor?
Identify the neutral wire on the generator. This will be the unused conductor to run the compressor. The ground and line1, line 2 are all that are needed.
What are the step to create cross network cable?
To create a Crossover Cable, wire one connecter to the T568A Network Standard and wire the other connector to the T568B Network Standard, so the cable 'crosses over', A becomes B and visa versa.
Why is there a wire not attached in the fuse box of a 1993 Chevy blazer?
This might be a cable for some additional feature your car is not equipped with, but the wire is included in the standard cable assy
What wire size do you need for a 3phase 80amp 60hz 220v load amp 68?

Is the neutral wire on a 220v outlet the same as the ground?
No it is not
Electric range 220 or 110?
Electrical range is usually 220V and requires at least a 40A breaker. In a three wire configuration, the white power carries 110V, the black wire carries 220V and the green wire is the ground. A four wire configuration has an additional wire that is neutral.
How do you wire a 220V 50Hz induction cooktop max 4.6kW in a 110V 60Hz service?
There comes a time when you simply have to upgrade your electrical service. A 60hz service was never designed to handle all the power requirements of a modern home. When the 60hz service came in, it was designed to handle a few lights and a few receptacles. I'd be surprised if you had more than 4 circuits on your board and I'm betting that you are blowing fuses or tripping circuit breakers constantly. Bite the bullet, upgrade your service.
What size wire required to run 5 amp 220v?
45
What are the amperage ratings for 240V wire?
Amperes is not constant like voltage. You can have .01 amps or 1200amps on a wire. Basic sizes of cable and their amp limits (for residential usage): 14ga. 15amps, 12ga. 20amps, 10ga 30 amps. It doesn't matter if its on 110V or 220V
What size of wire should be used for 60Hz?
The frequency has no direct relationship to the size of wire. Wire is sized as to the amount of current a load draws in a circuit.
Is a red wire negative or positive?
In a DC circuit it is positive. In a 220v ac circuit it's one of the two positive (hot) lines.
What is the US equivalent of European 4x2.5 sq mm HO7RN-F and could US 10 2 be substituted for the European cable to hardwire a 240V 27A appliance?

How many wires are used to wire a standard dryer?
In North America you would use a three wire cable. A dryer needs two voltage supplies. A 240 voltage for the heating element and 120 volts for the motor and controls. The three wire cable will have a ground wire in it also but in North America this is not counted as it is not a current carrying conductor. The size of the cable will be a 3C #10.
