Studies have shown that some jobs are more dangerous than others. The dangerous job was 33 times more dangerous as compared to average jobs. Many dangerous jobs have ear salaries that can be about $53,490 annually. Companies that hire employees for dangerous that also offer some compensation for any damage. here we will discuss different…

For 400amp service, we can use standard AWG wire values. Use thick Kcmil copper and aluminum wires. With that considered teh voltage losses for services of 100 feet distance. For 400 there is a need for wire that has features to handle about 400 amps. It means wire must have about 400A ampacity. 400 Amp…
