How do we know the particular size of wire that we are using?​

Answer:

Divide the voltage running through the cable by your target current. If, for instance, 120 volts will act on the cable, and you want 30 amps to run through it: 120 / 30 = 4. This is your target resistance, measured in ohms.

Multiply the cable's length by its material's resistivity. Copper, for instance, has a resistivity of 1.724 x 10^-8 ohm meters at room temperature. If your cable must measure 30,000 meters in length
