What Cable Size Do I Need for My Load Current?

Cable size depends on current, voltage drop, installation method, ambient temperature and cable length.

A buyer often asks: what cable size do I need for 100 amps, 200 amps or a certain motor power? The answer depends on rated current, voltage, cable length, installation method, ambient temperature and allowable voltage drop.

For an accurate recommendation, send the load current, rated voltage, cable route length, installation condition, number of cables grouped together and whether the cable is installed in air, conduit, tray or underground.

Jingfeng Cable can quote by your required model and size, but final electrical sizing should follow the project design standard and local electrical code.
