What is the function of light wire?
To carry the electric power to a light . . OR . . it's wire that is not too heavy to carry.
Is the heating element on a stove a chemical reaction?
No. It is a physical process cause be passing an electric current through a wire.
What kind and type wire can be used to wire an electric cook stove?
The wires must first be heat resistant. For that the best wires that can be used are wires made up of superconductors.
What all can you use 6 3 wire for?
I just used it to run my 50 amp electric stove. You can use it for a small sub-panel.
Can you wire an electric kiln into an electric stove outlet with a NEMA 14-50R recepticle and a 40A breaker?
Yes. Since you want your breaker to be less than the maximum rating of the receptacle this would be fine.
You want to wire an electric stove to your fuse box?
If you're asking here, then you don't know enough about electricity. It might even be illegal to do this yourself if you are unqualified. Get an electrician.

strong

Do you need a dedicated circuit for an electric stove?
Always. Check the spec for amps and use an online calculator to figure for wire size.

Why can birds sit on a wire without getting an electric shocked?
You only get an electric shock if you are touching both the ground and the electric wire, (or close enough to both for the electricity to arc) Birds sat on electricity cables are not close enough to the ground for the electricity to arc, therefore they do not get shocked.
How do you wire a 3 wire 240 volt stove to a 240 volt 4 wire feed?
Change the cord/plug on the stove to a four wire cord/plug. When installing the new plug remove the grounding strip that connects the center lug in the stove wiring block to the frame of the stove. Connect the white wire from the new plug to the center lug. Connect the green wire from the plug to the stove frame.

Can you split hot water tank electric to stove?
No. Each circuit has to have its own dedicated circuit. The breaker and wire size differ between the two appliances.
