    HOW TO CALCULATE BREAKER SIZE, WIRE SIZE AND WATTAGES


    The chart below will help you determine fuse or breaker size and the necessary wire size to service various wattage loads. To protect against material failures, the National Electric Code requires that most materials be de-rated 20%. This means that only an 80% load factor may be used when figuring electrical material needs and is already calculated in the chart. BREAKER SIZE WIRE SIZE Based on copper THHN wire increase one size when using aluminum conductors MAXIMUM ALLOWABLE WATTAGE (80% of Breaker Max.) Single Phase
