How many amps will a number 2 copper wire hold?
Copper wires do not hold amps, they have a cross sectional area capacity to allow amperage to flow. In the electrical trade this is spoken of as "ampacity" of the wire. It is a combining of the two words amps and capacity. A # 2 copper wire with an insulation factor of 60, 75 or 90 degrees C is consecutively rated at 100, 115 and 120 amps.
Can 12-2 600v wire handle 20 amps?
Yes, a 12-2 600v wire can handle 20 amps. This type of wire is typically rated for 20 amps in residential electrical systems, making it suitable for that current load. However, it's essential to follow local electrical codes and guidelines to ensure proper installation and safety.
What size electrical wire do I need to run from a meter main to a 200 amp panel 80 feet away?
A 3/0 copper conductor with an insulation rating of 75 or 90 degrees C is rated at 200 and 210 amps respectively. A 3/0 copper conductor will limit the voltage drop to 2% or less when supplying 200 amps for 80 feet on a 240 volt system.
200ma in amps?
200ma is .200 amps or .2 amps
Can 10-2 wire carry 50 amps?
NO! I maintain an old school from the 1940's and i agree w/ the Indiana certified w/ electrical code of that day ( still applies as the copper has not changed) #10 is good for 20 amps up to 100' and then you must derated it to 18 amps for continuous load. # 12 good for 15 amps ( 12 amp continuous) The codes today are nuts but they do say " minimum" allowed by NEC. Ive been doing this for 30 years.
What are the dimensions of the 2 meter electrical panel?

What size cable for hundred and twenty meter run for hundred and twenty amps?
# 2-awg
What is the 6/3 amp rating for this electrical appliance?
The 6/3 amp rating for this electrical appliance is 2 amps.
To what scale should the ammeter be set in order to read a current of 2000ma?
2000ma is equal to 2 amps. Set you meter to a current range ABOVE 2 amps.
