What size wire and circuit breaker is needed for an electric oven 4 wires with rated load of 34.9 amps 220v that is about 100 foot run from the electrical panel?

That would be a 40 amp 220v circuit. Circuit breaker is 40 amps and wire is 8 awg. Should use solid copper wire. Follow oven installation instructions.

Installing a 120volt appliance what breaker is needed at the electric box?
Need to know what the wattage or the amperage is of the appliance. The load amperage is what governs the wire size and the breaker to protect the circuit.
What size circuit breaker is needed for a 300 watt bulb?
A 15 amp circuit breaker will handle this situation very well. The smallest home breaker is rated at 15 amp.
What size of electrical wire needed for 100A circuit breaker?
A #3 copper conductor with an insulation factor of 90 degrees C is rated for 105 amps.
How do you install electrical wiring for room aircon?
More information is needed, maybe a lot more. Depending on its size you may need a new circuit for it. If you trip the breaker then don't use it and get a new circuit installed for it on its own breaker. You are probably talking about a window unit. If it is a simple 5000 BTU unit you can probably plug it into the nearest receptacle. If you trip the breaker then you need to run a new circuit for it. If it is much larger you may need to run a new circuit. If it is a 240 volt unit then you need a new circuit.
What are the two things needed to make current flow in electricity?
A flow of electrons is needed to have a current. And there (usually) must be a complete circuit. And you need a voltage to make the current move around your circuit. All tied up in Ohms Law - which I'll leave to you.

What is the distance needed around a electrical breaker box?

Why is a motor needed in a circiut?
A motor is not needed in a circuit, a motor is an electrical load for the current to drive, but the circuit can perform with other types of load - such as a lamp, a transformer, a heating coil, or any electronic load. if you mean 'why does an electric motor need a circuit?' this is because the motor is an electrical device which has coils of wire to produce a magnetic field, without the circuit it cannot function.
What size of electrical wire needed for 100A circuit breaker?
A #3 copper conductor with an insulation factor of 90 degrees C is rated for 105 amps.
How do you add wires in your house?
First you need top check to see if you have space in your circuit box. If so a new breaker can be added and wires ran from that new circuit to any new location where additional electric is needed.
Application of electrical circuit analogies in magnetic circuit?
Magnetic circuit follows equation (4) that is Ni = (Ф) ( l / μA) or m.m.f(magneto motive force) = (Flux) (reluctance).Electric circuit follows ohm's law that is E = I.R or e.m.f(electro motive force) = (current) (Resistance)From above point m.m.f in magnetic circuit is like as e.m.f in electrical circuit.Flux in magnetic circuit is similar as current in electrical circuit.Reluctance in magnetic circuit, S = ( l / μA) is similar to resistance R = (ρl/A) in electric circuit.Permeance (= 1/reluctance) in magnetic circuit is equivalent to conductance (=1/resistance) in electric circuit.In magnetic circuit flux establishes but not flow like as current in magnetic circuit.In magnetic circuit energy needed only to establish the flux but no consistent energy need to maintain it whereas in electric circuit continuous energy needed to flow of current.Resistance of an electric circuit is constant (for same temperature) and is independent of current but reluctance of magnetic circuit is not constant because it depends on μ (=B/H) which is not constant and depends on B/H.
What size breaker is needed for a 1100 watt microwave?
A minimum of 15-amp breaker is "needed", but a 20-amp is often required by electrical code for that situation.
How many Breakers needed to wire an electric furnace?
The electric furnace operates on 240 volts so a two pole breaker is needed.

How big of a circuit breaker needed for two 1500 watt that are 240 volts?
A 30 amp breaker wired with AWG #10 wire.
