The current-carrying capacity of a 1.5 mm² wire typically depends on the type of insulation and installation conditions, but it can generally handle around 10 to 16 amperes for most applications. In residential wiring, it is often rated for about 16 amps under standard conditions. However, it's essential to consult local electrical codes and standards for specific applications and safety considerations.

What is 14SWG copper wire in mm?
14SWG copper wire has a diameter of 1.628 mm.
What size of wire do you run 300 meters to get 15 amp 110 volt at your gate?
Assuming the allowed volt drop is 5% or 5.5 volts, the wire resistance has to be 5.5/15 ohms or less, 0.367 ohms. The total length of wire is 600 metres so the resistance per metre is 0.00061 ohms. 1 sq-mm copper wire has a resistance of 0.0168 ohms/metre so you need wire with a size of 0.0168/0.00061 sq-mm, or 27.5 sq-mm. The next size up is 35 sq-mm in European cable size, or #2 AWG in America.
1.5 cm equals how many mm?
1.5 cm equals 15 mm.
How big a wire do you need for 6 amps?
The wire can be as big as you want to carry 6 amps. As a comparison, the smallest home wiring power circuit uses a #14 size wire and it is rated for 15 amps. In the UK a wire of 0.75 sq. mm is rated at 6 amps for portable appliances with occasional use. For a permanent installation a cable of 1 sq. mm. or more should be used. House wiring uses 2.5 sq. mm cable in a ring circuit to supply power sockets.

Can you connect a 6mm earth wire to a 2.5 mm earth wire?
A 6 mm earth wire can be used to replace a 2.5 mm earth wire, but if there is an existing 6 mm earth wire it must be 6 mm all the way to the earth, and not replaced by a smaller wire between it and the earth connection.
How much is 1.5 centimeters in millimeters?
15 mm 1 cm = 10 mm 1 mm = 0.1 cm
How much is 15 mm?
1 and a half cm
Does a wire with a diameter of 0.01 mm have lower resistance than a wire with 0.1 mm?
No, the wire with a diameter of 0.01 mm will have higher resistance compared to a wire with a diameter of 0.1 mm. Resistance of a wire is inversely proportional to its cross-sectional area, so a thinner wire will have higher resistance.
How many amps will taken in sq mm copper wire?
10 amps

What is larger 2.0 or 3.0 electrical wire?
In electrical wire sizing, a 3.0 mm² wire is larger than a 2.0 mm² wire. The numbers refer to the cross-sectional area of the wire, with a higher number indicating a thicker wire that can carry more current. Thus, 3.0 mm² wire has a greater capacity and is typically used for higher power applications compared to 2.0 mm² wire.
