The more conductors you have, the greater the voltage drop.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In addition, when it comes to underground wire, the wire length, size and material are factors that might lead to voltage drop. The longer the wire, the greater the decrease in voltage.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Larger-diameter wires offer less resistance than smaller-diameter wires. What wire is made of also affects the resistance as some materials are better conductors than others.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Basically, the voltage drop in households is minimal. The NEC recommended drop is within 3%. But if there are more than 100 feet of the distance involved in running wire, the voltage drop becomes an issue.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Excessive voltage drop means that electrical and electronic devices are not able to function properly and efficiently as they are supposed to be. It is also a waste of electricity as a considerable amount of energy is lost for nothing. It causes unsatisfactory performance, unnecessary wear, and even premature failure of electrical equipment.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>What types and <\/b><b>what size electrical wire to run to shed?<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Household wire comes in many different types and you need to choose the one with suitable size, length, and material to run to your shed.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To minimize voltage drop, the first thing to consider is <\/span><b><i>wire gauge<\/i><\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> which is the thickness of the metal within the wire. The heavier the gauge, the larger the load that can go through.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Though copper wire offers lower resistance than aluminum wire, copper is still an accepted and common option. If you decide to use copper, you need to spend more on thicker gauge wire.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The following table clearly shows the maximum lengths of cable for the given wire size <strong>(AWG)<\/strong> and circuit voltage that you can apply without exceeding a 3 percent voltage drop.
