Hello all,
I believe 6 gauge, stranded, is all one needs for a 60 amp circuit with 48 amps continues draw (HPWC) - for distances less than a certain amount of feet. My installation will be 35 running feet of wire from my main panel and I was thinking of going with 4 gauge wire (actually 4/3 cable) instead of the 6 gauge equivalent. I'm curious to know what you (or your electrician) used for your installation. Please state # of feet and whether you or your electrician did the install! Happy 48 Amps to you all!
