There is no rating for #14 wire in the electrical code book. This is because #12 aluminium wire is rated at 20 amps and that is the minimum of home wiring circuit wiring in aluminium. It is not, if at all, used anymore.
#10 at 75 or 90 degree C is rated both at 30 amps.
#8 at 75 or 90 degree C is rated both at 45 amps.

What is the amp rating of NM wire?
The ampacity or amp rating of all wire is rated by the size of the wire. NM (non-metallic sheathing) wire is no different. In household wiring 14 gauge wire must go on a 15 amp breaker/ 12 gauge goes on a 20 A and 10 gauge goes on a 30 Amp.
What is the 16 gauge amp rating?
That is 10 amp wire.
What is amp rating for 16 gauge wire?
10
What is the amp rating for a 3 wire?
The amperage rating of any wire or conductor is determined by its size or gauge. It has nothing to do with whether it is a two, three or four conductor wire. For example, in basic residential wiring, a 14 gauge wire is rated at 15 amps, a 12 gauge wire is rated at 20 amps, a # 10 is rated for 30A and so forth.
What gauge wire is required for a 90 amp breaker?
3 AWG in copper and 2 AWG in Aluminum.

What is the amp and voltage rating for number 6 gauge wire?
55 <<>> A #6 copper conductor with an insulation factor of 75 or 90 degrees C are both rated for 65 amps.
What is the amp rating for 14 gauge wire 100 ft .?
Under normal household conditions it is 15 amps.
Which kind of wires will I need to hook up my Amp?
You'll need RCA style cables to connect from your headunit to the amp. You'll then need Speaker Wire to run from the outputs of the Amp to the speaker terminals. You'll also need a heavy gauge power wire. A wiring kit such as the StreetWires Power Station PSK04Ri 4-gauge amplifier wiring kit.
What size wire should you use for a 1000 amp circuit?
That is not home wiring. I would use 4/00 gauge. <<>> A 750MCM wire with an insulation factor of 90 degrees C is rated at 500 amps. A parallel run of two 500MCM will give you 1000 amp capacity.
What wiring kit i use for Crunch drive v4300 watt1200 amp?
i would say a 4 gauge kit would be more then enough for it 8 gauge min...
