How do you determine messenger wire size?
The messenger in triplex and quad is already determined by the wire size that is wrapped around it. It is the maximum span distance that you should find for the size of over head cable that is being used.
What size of cable wire used for 500 kva transformer 240 volt 3 phase?
A 10 mm cable is most commonly used for a 500 KVA transformer, 240 volt, 3 phrase. The size of the wire that is used in a transformer is based on the voltage.
What would the cable size be for a 90 meter armoured cable with a 110 amp supply with a 330 amp start up?
To calculate voltage drop to size the wire, a voltage must be stated.
How do you figure your celsius rating for wire sizing?
The ambient insulation rating of wires and cables is imprinted on the wire and cables. The labels on the cables will tell you the wire size, number of conductors and temperature rating of the wires and cables. The higher the cable and wire temperature ratings the higher the amount of current that is allowed to be drawn by the wire and cable according to the electrical code book.
can service entrance wire be used for a stove?
Answer for USA, Canada and countries running a 60 Hz supply service.It is not a recommended procedure. Depending on what size service entrance cable it is the wire size will be too large to fit into the breaker and range lugs. Cutting strands off of a larger size wire to fit into the lugs is not acceptable. If this is new construction then the electrical inspector will reject the installation for not using the properly sized cable to feed the range. Use the proper size cable and feel free that there is not going to be any problems further on. The wire should be 3 conductor #8 fed from a two pole 40 amp breaker.
Is there Cable sizing calculator for a copper cable?
Here is a fine Wire Size Calculator. Scroll down to related links and look at "Wire Size Calculator".
What is the type and size of cable gland or 2 core cable?
To answer this question the size of the cable or the amperage of the load is needed to calculate the correct wire size and connectors to fit the cable.
What is the awg wire size designation of the cable?
:D
What is the recommended gauge size for a 100 amp cable?
The recommended gauge size for a 100 amp cable is typically 3 AWG (American Wire Gauge) for copper wire.
What is AWG in cable?
American Wire Gauge. Measure the thickness of the cable.
What size of wire use for 3kw motor 380volts 3phase?
How to calculate a cable size of 3kw motor
What cable wire size for 1000 watts aircondition?
The only way to determine the cable wire size needed for a 1000 watt air conditioner is to find the load size. To get the load size you will need to use the formula Amps = Watts or Volts. With that being said, you will need a number 14 copper wire.
What cable size needed for 3KW geyser?
You need to know the amperage requirement of the pump and then you can calculate the wire size.
How do you recycle cable?
You can recycle cable by selling them to recycling centers or strip the insulation off with a tool like a wire cutter, a cable stripping machine etc. and sell the copper core in it.
When is wire size an electrical hazards?
Wire size becomes an electrical hazard when it is under rated for the amount of current (Amps or I) it has to carry.Current is the flow of electrons in a circuit. If the current is too large for the cable, the cable will be subject to heating, which is a possible fire hazard.
What wire size is used in the 60 amp low voltage cable?
The wire size typically used for a 60 amp low voltage cable is AWG 6 or AWG 8 depending on the specific application and voltage requirements. It's important to consult the manufacturer's specifications for the appropriate wire size for your particular setup.
Can you connect 10 gauge wire directly to 8 gauge wire?
It really depends on what device you are connecting power to. It is not much of a concern if running the heavier 8ga. wire, into the lighter 10ga. wire, when dealing with a 12 volt system. There are variables that come into play when selecting wire size, such as amperage draw, and length of run. An 8ga. wire sounds like a battery cable for a small outboard engine. If dealing with a battery cable, it is good practice to replace the defective one, with a new cable of the same size. Always keep in mind, there is a reason that this size wire was used in the first place.
