If the voltage and amperage are strong enough yes. That's why you can be electrocuted
Amperage drop with distance depends on the resistance of the conductor and the load. As distance increases, resistance increases, leading to higher voltage drop. This can result in lower amperage at the end of the circuit compared to the source. Use Ohm's Law (V=IR) to calculate the amperage drop based on the resistance and distance.
Sizing of ground conductors is based on the load capacity in amps of the generator. There is a table in the electrical code book which states an amperage and what size ground wire that is needed for that amperage.
This answer is if you are referring to the sizing of electrical conductors in North America using the AWG for sizing. An American Wire Gauge sizing of 600 refers to the cross sectional area of the conductor.This amperage value is for a single copper conductor.A 600 MCM copper conductor with an insulation rating of 75 or 90 degrees C is rated for 690 and 780 amps respectively.This amperage value is for not more than three copper conductors in a conduit or raceway.A 600 MCM copper conductor with an insulation rating of 75 or 90 degrees C is rated for 420 and 475 amps respectively.This amperage value is for a single aluminium conductor.A 600 MCM aluminium conductor with an insulation rating of 75 or 90 degrees C is rated for 545 and 615 amps respectively.This amperage value is for not more than three aluminium conductors in a conduit or raceway.A 600 MCM copper conductor with an insulation rating of 75 or 90 degrees C is rated for 340 and 385 amps respectively.
Wire is sized by the amperage applied to the wire. To answer this question a voltage needs to be stated. I = W/E. Amps = Watts/Volts. A #14 copper conductor is rated at 15 amps.
An amperage is the electric current's strength carried by a conductor or machine generated as measured in amperes.
The amount of current flow through a wire is measured in amperes (A) and is determined by the voltage applied to the wire and the resistance of the wire. According to Ohm's Law, current (I) is equal to voltage (V) divided by resistance (R), so I = V / R.

This depends, you have amperage which is how much pressure of electricity is being pushed through the conductor. Next is what kind of conductor, the matters because of ohms, which is how much resistance is caused by the conductor
The size of the conductor is in direct relation ship to its rating capacity of carrying a current. The larger the diameter of the conductor the larger the amperage rating capacity of the conductor.
Wire size for any piece of equipment is based on the equipments load amperage. The higher the amperage that larger the wire size has to be. For motor loads the motor's amperage has to be increased by 25% to size the conductor. Example, a 10 amp motor load current plus 25% equals 12.5 amps. This would boost the wire size from a #14 to a #12 conductor. This additional amperage increasing is also used for transformer conductor sizing.
Without knowing the nominal voltage rating, who can tell? <<>> The sizing of cables or conductors is based on the amperage that the conductor can safely carry. The formula for amperage is I = W/E. Amps = 12000/Volts. With out a voltage stated an answer to this question can not be answered. When you calculate the amperage, re-ask your question for a conductor size for a given amperage.
Cable doesn't conduct power, it conducts current. Either the voltage and load must be known or the amperage the cable will need to conduct to determine the size of the cable. Once the amperage is known, there are multiple tables online that have cable size and amperage. Do a Google search for "conductor amperage" for examples.

a. amperage and voltage b. the size and length of the wires c. voltage and resistance d. fuses and circuit breakers
It regulates the amperage to prevent electrical overloads. If a surge occurs which is too great for the fuse to handle, it blows out, and interrupts the circuit.
Wire sizing of a feed conductor is based on the amperage that a device draws. To calculate amperage from KVA a voltage of the supply has to be stated. Without this voltage and whether the transformer is single or three phase an answer can not be given.
