What else can I help you with?
What size wire do you need to run to an air conditioner that has a maximum breaker size of 40 amps and a minimum circuit size of 25.3 amps?
You would need to use a wire size that is rated for at least 40 amps to be safe and to meet the requirements of the air conditioner. A common wire size for this application would be 8 AWG copper wire, which is rated for 40 amps.
Need to run 30 amps about 100 feet what copper wire?
This is a voltage drop question. A voltage at 30 amps needs to be stated to answer the question.
How many amps 10 gauge wire?
The NEC limits the overcurrent protection of #10 copper to 30A. This means that that a continuous load supplied by the #10 cannot exceed 24A unless the breaker is rated for 100% continuous duty. Don't forget to apply any derating factors as required in table 310.16 of the NEC. For derating you can use the appropriate temperature rating column i.e. 90 deg for THHN dry location but in no case can you exceed 30A. It depends upon What type of wire and how that wire is being run. Standard ratings for residential wiring is a maximum of 30 amps for a #10 wire. To get technical, I think the maximum amperage of #10 wire run enclosed (like in metal conduit) is 33 amps. Most building inspectors will go by the 30 amp rule. 10 copper wire will hold 30 amps /we use this size wire for electrical dryers. For aluminum wiring the maximum loading is lower. 10 gauge aluminum hold 25 AMPS.
Can you run two 60 amp sources in parallel to get 100 amps out?
No they can not, because the electrical code states that wires in parallel can only be 1/0 AWG and larger. The ampacity of 1/0 wire is 150 amps. The ampacity of a wire for 60 amps is #6 which is much smaller that 1/0 wire.
What size wire for 12vdc 30 amps?
For a 12VDC system with 30 amps, you would typically use a wire size of at least 8 AWG (American Wire Gauge) to ensure it can handle the current without overheating. It's always a good idea to consult a wire ampacity chart to select the appropriate wire size based on the length of the wire run and the specific conditions of your setup.
What size of copper do you need for a 1250 amps rating?
There are different combination to obtain a current capacity of 1250 amps. A parallel run of #1250 MCM wires. A triple run of #600 MCM wire. The most flexible run would be with a quad run of #350 MCM wire.
If I have 150ft of 10 gauge wire with 60 amp service how many amps and watts do I have available at the end of the line?
10 gauge wire will only run up to 30 amps
What gauge wire to run 260 amp 12 volt 50 feet?
A 350 MCM copper conductor with an insulation factor of 90 degrees C is rated at 260 amps.
How many watts can run through 6 A wire?
W = A x V. Watts = Amps x Volts. There is not a voltage stated to multiply the 6 amps with so an answer can not be given.
How many amps can a 8 gauge wire run coming from the ditribution panel to the sub panel 25 feet away?
A #8 copper wire with an insulation factor of 75 or 90 degrees C is rated at 45 amps.
What size wire do you need to run to an air conditioner that has a maximum breaker size of 40 amps and a minimum circuit size of 25.3 amps?

Need to run 30 amps about 100 feet what copper wire?
This is a voltage drop question. A voltage at 30 amps needs to be stated to answer the question.
How many amps is 3 awg wire good for?
It depends on the application, but for Single-Phase dwelling service and feeders 3 AWG copper is good for 110 amps. That really equates to 100 amps since you can't get a 110 amp circuit breaker.

How do you wire a 1979 Chevy 350 hei distributor?
You need to run a switched, full-voltage wire to the "bat" terminal.
Can you wire your car alternator to your electric car motor and run it directly off the alternator amps?
no you can't
Can you run two 60 amp sources in parallel to get 100 amps out?
No they can not, because the electrical code states that wires in parallel can only be 1/0 AWG and larger. The ampacity of 1/0 wire is 150 amps. The ampacity of a wire for 60 amps is #6 which is much smaller that 1/0 wire.
