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 circut breaker for 10-2 wire?
A #10 wire has the capacity for 30 amps. No breaker larger than 30 amps should be used to protect the circuit.
What size fuse should be used for 2 amp power supply?
If the 2 amps is the output amperage of the power supply, the maximum that should be drawn from the unit is 2 amps. The load amperage that is connected to the power supply should govern the amperage of the fuse used. There is not much range there, the fusing could go from .25 to 2 amps. If the input amperage is 2 amps then the input and output voltage of the power supply should be stated.
How do you solve for the size of wire when the given is kva?
The V stands for volts and A is amps. If for example you have a 12kVA device and are running off a voltage of 120 volts then Amps = 12000/120 = 100. You then use the calculated amps in a wire size table to get the correct size.
What size of wire is needed for 1500 amps?
There is no single conductor that will handle 1500 amps. For ease of handling, the conductors should be installed in parallel, triple or quad runs. For a parallel run, 2 - 2000 MCM with an insulation factor of 90 degrees C will give you a total ampacity of 1550 amps. For a triple run, 3 - 750 MCM with an insulation factor of 90 degrees C will give you a total ampacity of 1500 amps. For a quad run, 4 - 500 with an insulation factor of 90 degrees C will give you a total ampacity of 1580 amps.
What is the minimum branch-circuit wire size installed in a dwelling?
The minimum size home wiring is #14 AWG, the rating for that size wire is 15 amps.

What size bathroom is this fan recommended to be installed in?
This fan should be installed in a bathroom of no more than 100 square feet.
What size of wire should use when hooking a camper up?
What governs the size of the wire for a camper is the load that the camper draws when fully loaded. If you are referring to a camper as one that is on the back of a truck then the wire should be around #10 to #8 which will give you an ampacity of 30 to 40 amps. Make sure that the proper fuse link is installed in the feeder line on this project. Find the wattage of the devices in the camper and use the following equation. The equation to use is Amps = Watts/Volts.
What size circut breaker for 10-2 wire?
A #10 wire has the capacity for 30 amps. No breaker larger than 30 amps should be used to protect the circuit.
How many amps does a wine chiller use?
Depends on the size of the wine chiller. There should be a label on the chiller with this information.
How can you install two - two amp breaker boxes from one meter can?
The smallest size in breaker panels is 30 amps and the smallest breakers that can be installed into a 30 amp panel are15 amps. If more info is needed go to the discussion page tab and explain what you are trying to do.
What size wire to carry 8 amps at 120 volts?
A # 14 copper conductor will be fine to carry 8 amps at 120 volts. This size conductor is rated at 15 amps.
What size breaker should you use for a unit that draws 58 running amps?
To determine the correct size breaker, you need to ensure that it is rated higher than the running amps of the unit. For a unit drawing 58 running amps, a breaker that is rated for at least 70 amps would be appropriate to provide a safety margin and prevent tripping due to overload.
What size fuse should be used for 2 amp power supply?
If the 2 amps is the output amperage of the power supply, the maximum that should be drawn from the unit is 2 amps. The load amperage that is connected to the power supply should govern the amperage of the fuse used. There is not much range there, the fusing could go from .25 to 2 amps. If the input amperage is 2 amps then the input and output voltage of the power supply should be stated.
What size amp breaker for a 220V air conditioner?
The size of the amp breaker for a 220V air conditioner will depend on the specific requirements of the air conditioner. As a general guideline, you can calculate the required amps by dividing the air conditioner's wattage by the voltage (220V). For example, if your air conditioner is rated at 5500 watts, you would need a breaker of at least 25 amps (5500 watts / 220 volts = 25 amps). It is always best to consult the manufacturer's specifications or a licensed electrician to ensure the correct size breaker is installed.
How many cold cranking amps should a battery have for a 6 cylinder 1992 Oldsmobile Achieva?
O.E. group size 75 for this car. Battery needs to be 700 cold cranking amps and 875 cranking amps. Usually around $70.00 with core.
