That certainly is a lot!! It sounds like you will need to install a 200 Amp subpanel in your barn. This means that your main power box will have to have room for a 2-pole 200 Amp breaker, in addition to whatever other main breakers that may be in it. As far as wiring: normally you could go with 3/0 copper, or 4/0 aluminum. However, with a 300-foot run, I would size up my wire by at least one. 4/0 for copper, or 250kcmil for aluminum MINIMUM. You only want a maximum of a 5% voltage drop from the main breaker to the barn's subpanel. Using the smaller wire size will probably give you a drastic voltage drop, causing tools to not work properly. Be certain the wire gets buried 18-24 inches below the ground.

∙ 15y agoTo safely run 50,000 watts of power over a 300-foot distance, you would need thick copper wire, typically around 4/0 gauge. This wire size will ensure that the voltage drop over that distance is minimized, allowing for efficient power transmission to the barn. It's recommended to consult with an electrician to ensure proper sizing and installation for this high-power load.
To run electricity to a barn, you would typically need to install a dedicated electrical circuit from the main electrical panel in your house to the barn. This may involve burying electrical cables underground or running them overhead. It is important to consult with a licensed electrician to ensure the wiring is done safely and in compliance with local building codes.

Chicken barn sizes vary depending on the number of chickens that need housing. The chicken barn should provide enough room for the chicken to be comfortable moving around and nesting.
The upper door on a barn is called a hayloft door, also known as a loft door. It is typically used for storing hay or other feed for livestock on the upper level of the barn.
For a 280 foot run to supply power to a barn from a house panel, you would typically need a wire gauge between 2/0 and 4/0 depending on the electrical load requirements of the barn. It's always recommended to consult with a qualified electrician to determine the appropriate wire gauge for your specific situation to ensure safety and compliance with electrical codes.

I think you need to clarify whether you mean whether it's possible to do, or whether it's allowed by law/codes. It is certainly possible to do. The amount of copper (size and number of wires) needed depends on what you mean my "running a barn." The more electrical power you need to run the barn the more copper you must lay along the 1000 feet. I don't know about wiring codes and restrictions.
