What is bigger 1 0 AWG or 2 0 AWG?
1/0 is 0 AWG, 2/0 is 00 AWG, 3/0 is 000 AWG and so on with more zeros being thicker wire. This being cladded aluminum wire it’s current carrying capacity is less then what copper wire could carry.
What size are battery cables?
Battery cables are sized according to the American Wire Gauge (AWG). The sizes from the smallest to the largest include 6, 4, 2, 1, 1/0, 2/0, 3/0, and 4/0. Your choice depends on the amperage and length you need. As far as standards go, a 6-gauge AWG cable has a 50-amp capacity and is 11.8 feet long.
What size cable do I need for my welder?
It’s always best to size welder circuits and wiring based on the input current requirements of the welder. For example, 240-volt, 40- to 50-input amp welders will require a 50-amp circuit breaker and 6-gauge wiring. Welders operating at 30 to 40 input amps require a 40-amp breaker and 8-gauge wire.
What is the difference between 1 0 and 1 AWG?
But looking at the title of this thread, are you referring the difference between #1 AWG and 1/O AWG? There is a difference, 1/O is one wire size larger.

What do you need to know about Mas 800?
MAS 800 is a pump supervision system, which is available for use with Flygt’s large, mid-range and slurry pumps. It constantly monitors pump operation, records and stores critical data, immediately alerts you with early warning signals and, if required, automatically stops them.
What are the NEC rules for cable size?
The following steps and examples should help you understand the basic rules of how to size a cable per the NEC: Step 1 – Size the overcurrent device in accordance with 210.20 (A) and 215.3. These two NEC rules require the overcurrent device (breaker or fuse) be sized no less than 100% of the noncontinuous load, plus 125% of the continuous load.
What are the standard cable and wire sizes?
Standard Cable & Wire Sizes. By Steven McFadyen on April 9th, 2012. IEC 60228 is the International Electrotechnical Commission’s international standard on conductors of insulated cables. Among other things, it defines a set of standard wire cross-sections: International standard wire sizes (IEC 60228) 0.5 mm². 0.75 mm².
What is the formula for the cable size?
The cable size is equal to the 1.5 times of the full load current of the motor/load. Hence the cable rating formula can be written as, Cable size = 1.5 x Full Load Current.
