FAQ:

Q: Can you use 10 gauge wire for a range?

A: NO electric range, apartment (20″) or full (30″) size notwithstanding, should be connected to anything less than a #8 wire. No. 10 wire is simply not heavy enough to carry the potential amperage an electric range can draw. And a certain size breaker is not specified because it will make the range operate better; it has nothing to do with that.

Q: What is the thickness of 10 gauge wire?

A: Standard Steel: 10 Gauge = 3.416 mm Galvanized Steel: 10 Gauge = 3.51 mm Stainless Steel: 10 Gauge = 3.571 mm Aluminum, Brass, Copper: 10 Gauge = 2.588 mm

Q: What gauge wire is required for 15 amp service?

A: Electricians often use 14-gauge copper wire, rated at 15 amps for light fixtures and lamps, but they use 12-gauge wire for receptacles, air conditioners, sump pumps and other appliances requiring up to 20 amps.

Q: How does electric current flow in a wire?

A: Electricity is a flow of tiny particles called electrons which can travel through wires. This flow is often called an ‘electric current’. Just like water, which can only flow down a hill, an electric current can only flow if there’s something to give it a ‘push’.
