service lateral conductors are the underground conductors between the utility electric supply system and the service point, basically the cables that bring power from the transformer to the power meter in an underground service

What is the minimum size copper service entrance conductor for 145 amp service?
A #1 copper conductor with an insulation rating of 90 degrees C is rated at 145 amps.
Can a paralleled grounded conductor be a 2?
A conductor used for grounding of the main service should be a single wire. The code book has a table that states the size of ground wire for different service panel amperages.
How much current will flow in service wire?
In a service drop conductor the only limiting factor is the first over current device down stream from the service.
What size service ground is needed for a 350 parallel service?
From the question it is hard to establish whether the service size is 350 amps or the service conductors are 350 MCM in parallel. If the service is 350 amps, the grounding conductor is #3 bare copper wire. Parallel 350 MCM conductors will allow for a 600 amp service. The grounding conductor for a 600 amp service is a #1 bare copper wire.
What size R90 copper conductor should be used for a 200A service?
A 3/0 copper conductor with an insulation factor of 90 degrees C is rated at 225 amps.
What size grounding conductor is needed for a 80 amp service?
For service sizes of 100 amps and less a #8 bare copper conductor is required.
Is number 3 copper ground conductor a common conductor size?
Answer for USA, Canada and countries running a 60 Hertz supply service.CEC states that a #3 bare copper conductor is a common grounding conductor size for a 200 amp service panel and it is the minium size for service raceway and service equipment of 400 amps.
What is the minimum size copper service entrance conductor for 145 amp service?
A #1 copper conductor with an insulation rating of 90 degrees C is rated at 145 amps.
Can a paralleled grounded conductor be a 2?
A conductor used for grounding of the main service should be a single wire. The code book has a table that states the size of ground wire for different service panel amperages.
What is the lateral speed of a conductor of 1 meter in length when it induces a voltage of 30 when moved at right angles across a magnetic field of 2 teslas?

What is an affordable and great conductor of electricity?
The most commonly used conductor of electricity is copper. For larger size service conductors the most commonly used conductor for electricity is aluminum. Aluminum service conductors are used to keep the overall cost of the project lower and are lighter to work with than copper wire.
How much current will flow in service wire?
In a service drop conductor the only limiting factor is the first over current device down stream from the service.
What size service ground is needed for a 350 parallel service?
From the question it is hard to establish whether the service size is 350 amps or the service conductors are 350 MCM in parallel. If the service is 350 amps, the grounding conductor is #3 bare copper wire. Parallel 350 MCM conductors will allow for a 600 amp service. The grounding conductor for a 600 amp service is a #1 bare copper wire.
What size ground wire for 100a service?
A 100 amp residential service requires a size #8 copper wire, it should be insulated in green.
What size R90 copper conductor should be used for a 200A service?
A 3/0 copper conductor with an insulation factor of 90 degrees C is rated at 225 amps.
What is an grounding electrode conductor?
It is the conductor that is used in service distribution panels that bonds the distribution panel's neutral bus bar to the ground electrode (rod). This brings all of the distribution panel neutrals that are connected to the same supply system to the same potential, that being zero. Should a supply service neutral open this ground wire will maintain the systems integrity until repairs can be made.
What size wire for 200 amp service with a 60 foot run?
This can't be answered without knowing the voltage, and ground is not the same as neutral, in AC circuits, which I'm assuming this is.
