What size service underground wire for 60amp at60 feet?
# 6 copper wire.
What size wire for a 200 amp 3phase service 100 feet away?
This is a voltage drop question. A voltage must be stated to answer this question.
What size wire will carry 52 amps - the service is 8 feet away?
A #6 copper wire with an insulation factor of 75 or 90 degree C is rated at 65 amps.
What size wire do you need to run overhead to a 50 amp service five hundred feet away?
For that distance I would run AWG # 3 copper and install a sub-panel.
145 feet run for 50 amp service what size wire?
here is a wire gauge calculator which will answer your questions http://www.powerstream.com/Wire_Size.htm
What size wire to use for 100 amp service 160 feet from the power pole?
AWG 4 copper.
What size wire for 240 volts 200 amp service 200 feet away?
A 3/0 copper conductor will limit the voltage drop to 3% or less when supplying 200 amps for 200 feet on a 240 volt system.
What gauge wire to use for direct burial for a garage that is 400 feet from your house?
Depends on the size of the sub-panel in that garage. If you are installing a 60 amp sub-panel 400 feet away from the main service panel then use AWG # 4.
What size wire do you use for up to 350 feet for 100 amp service?
That can't be answered until you state the voltage.
What size USE wire for 100 amp service at 75 feet?
Assuming its copper. Number #3 or #2 is fine
What size wire do I need for a 60 amp service either 750 feet or 500 feet away?
It depends on the supply voltage because at that distance the size of the wire is calculated on the volt-drop which is 5% of the supply voltage, or 3% in some countries. The allowable resistance equals the volt-drop divided by the current, then you can use wire tables to find the wire size, remembering that a supply needs 2 wires which are in series so that their resistances add. <<>> To answer this question a voltage value has to be stated. This is due to the higher the voltage the lower the current on a specific load. The lower the current, the smaller the wire size can be.
What wire size needed for 150 amp service at 325 feet Copper or Aluminum?
This is a voltage drop question. To receive an answer to this question the voltage of the service must be stated.
