Breakers and wires can not be connected together this way. It is the amperage of the load that govern the wire size.The breaker is then chosen to protect the wire size amperage. It also depends on what the load is. If it is a motor, then the breaker is 250% of the motors full load amperage, even though the wire size remains the correct size to carry the motors full load amperage. A #6 copper conductor with an insulation rating of 90 degrees is rated at 60 amps.
Depends upon how many volts, for one thing, and how far it needs to go, and whether it is copper wire or something else, and what kind of load.
In theory, you could run a continuous load of 50 amps at 240 volts at up to 47 feet away, using 10AWG conductors and only lose 3 percent of your 62.5 amp design goal. For 120 volts you would need at least 6AWG, but it would get you up to 60 feet with only a 3 percent voltage drop.
Note that you cannot run a 50A load 100 percent of the time on a 50A over-current protection device, so you would need a 65A breaker for a constant 50A load.
Check your local electric codes first, but a #6 guage wire should be appropriate.
#8 with a #10 ground. A #8 copper wire with insulation rated at 90 degree C is only rated at 45 amps. A #6 copper wire with insulation rated at 90 degree C is rated at 65 amps.
# 8 awg (american wire gauge) wire minimum, although #6 is preferred.

AWG #6
You use the correct size breaker depending on the size wire in the circuit. If the circuit is wired with AWG #12 wire use a 20 amp breaker. If it is wired with AWG #14 wire then use a 15 amp breaker.
Look on the heater and see what amps it is pulling. That will determine the wire size and breaker size. It must be on a dedicated circuit. 15 amps = AWG # 14 wire with 15 amp breaker 20 amps = AWG # 12 wire with 20 amp breaker 30 amps = AWG # 10 wire with 30 amp breaker 40 amps = AWG # 8 wire with 40 amp breaker
Depends on the size of the wire going to the A/C. If the wire is AWG #10 you cannot install a 40 amp breaker. If the wire is AWG #8 you can.
You need a 60 amp breaker.
Depends on the wire size used in the circuit. If you use AWG # 14 wire you must use a 15 amp breaker. If it is wired with AWG # 12 wire then you use a 20 amp breaker. If a AWG # 10 wire is used then a 30 amp breaker is required. The breaker protects the wiring from overheating so you must use the proper size breaker for the wire used.
25 amp breaker
You use the correct size breaker depending on the size wire in the circuit. If the circuit is wired with AWG #12 wire use a 20 amp breaker. If it is wired with AWG #14 wire then use a 15 amp breaker.
30 amp breaker with #10 gauge copper wire
The size breaker you use is determined by the size wire used in the circuit. If you use AWG #12/2 wire then use a 20 amp breaker. If you use AWG # 14/2 then use a 15 amp breaker.
50 amp breaker wired with AWG # 6 wire.
For typical residential house wiring 12 AWG wire is required for a 20 Amp breaker. If you change out the breaker for a 25 A breaker you would have to rewire the circuit with 10 AWG. In that case you could up the breaker to 30 Amps. All outlets and switches should be rated at the same voltage and current as the breaker.
Use 15 amp breaker with 14 gage wire or 20 amp breaker with 12 gage wire. Either way will work just fine.
Look on the heater and see what amps it is pulling. That will determine the wire size and breaker size. It must be on a dedicated circuit. 15 amps = AWG # 14 wire with 15 amp breaker 20 amps = AWG # 12 wire with 20 amp breaker 30 amps = AWG # 10 wire with 30 amp breaker 40 amps = AWG # 8 wire with 40 amp breaker
Depends on the size of the wire going to the A/C. If the wire is AWG #10 you cannot install a 40 amp breaker. If the wire is AWG #8 you can.
Depends on the wire size you are using. If the generator breaker is a 30 amp then install a 30 amp breaker.
You need a 60 amp breaker.
Depends on the wire size used in the circuit. If you use AWG # 14 wire you must use a 15 amp breaker. If it is wired with AWG # 12 wire then you use a 20 amp breaker. If a AWG # 10 wire is used then a 30 amp breaker is required. The breaker protects the wiring from overheating so you must use the proper size breaker for the wire used.
