4amps can pass in 1sqmm of wire max it is universal.

In the UK 1 sq. mm wire can take 10 amps max according to tables. Cables that become warm in use should be replaced by a thicker gauge.

How much current can a 100mm wire carry?

The current-carrying capacity of a wire is influenced by factors like the wire material, temperature, insulation, and ambient conditions. In general, a 100mm wire can carry a few amperes of current in a typical household or low-power application. To determine the exact current capacity, it is advisable to consult the wire manufacturer's specifications or use an online current-carrying capacity calculator.

How to calculate the magnetic field strength around a current-carrying wire?

To calculate the magnetic field strength around a current-carrying wire, you can use the formula B ( I) / (2 r), where B is the magnetic field strength, is the permeability of free space, I is the current in the wire, and r is the distance from the wire.


What happens to the current carrying capacity of a conductor when you change the frequency from 50hz to 60hz?

The current caring capacity of a wire is based on the physical size of the wire. The larger the diameter of the wire the more amperage the wire is allowed to carry.

How can calculate the current capacity of 2.5 sq mm wire?

You don't calculate the current-carrying capacity, you find out from the appropriate Tables in your country's wiring regulations. In the UK, this is BS 7671:2008 Requirements for Electrical Installation.The reason you must do this is that the current-carrying capacity of a cable depends on the conductor type, number of cores, the type of insulation, the method of installation, etc. Allthese factors are taken into account in these Tables.For a 2.5-mm2 copper cable, the current-carrying capacity can vary from around 22 A to around 36 A, depending on the factors described above.
