Questions & Answers
Is this wire good for 30 amps?
Yes, it’s appropriate for 30amps
awg of the wire
Can this be run inside of PVC conduit on the side of a house?
Yes, but it should be stripped (sheathing removed) inside the conduit itself.
I bought a LG dryer and it needs a 10awg wire and the colors it shows behind the dryer for the wires is red black and white will this work? I don’t need a plug in because it’s being hardwired into a naval ship so I just need like 150-200 ft of a 10awg
Yes, this is 3 conductor wire plus a ground. The romex will have a black, red, and white wire as well as a bare copper wire for grounding. This should work for your application.
No this Romex is meant to serve a 115V circuit with with a hot, neutral and ground. Your electric dryer connection is 240V and has two hots (red and black) and the neutral which serves as a ground. NOT THE SAME AT ALL
This is 10-3. BLK&RED for 220V line, WHT=neutral, GRN=ground. Volts don't determine the wire size, it's the amps and length that do. That's a pretty long run. I'd think a naval ship would = conduit, which would be indiv. wires, not this romex.
Can I buy 10/3 Romeo by the foot
Hello Bill. Thank you for shopping at The Home Depot. No, this Romex is sold by the roll in our electrical department of the Home Depot. Please let us know if we can be of further assistance. Rick_HD_OC
Can i put a 40 amp breaker on this wire?
No! unless you're in a situation you can break the rules (very unlikely). 10 awg is 30amp max, 8 gauge is 40amp you need 8awg. Putting a 40 amp breaker on this 30amp wire means the wire can catch fire before the breaker trips and illegal/dangerous.

What is the temperature rating of the wire 10/3
Southwire® Romex® Brand SIMpull® NM-B (nonmetallic-sheathed) cable may be used for both exposed and concealed work in normally dry locations at temperatures not to exceed 90°C (with ampacity limited to that for 60°C conductors) as specified in the National Electrical Code.
Max Amps Allowed , my inverter is 1 phase 230v 85A - the Neural & L are both 115v for only emergency, I have NO 220v in my home all are 120v , only in emergency I will power my home with 1 phase of 120v with my Hybrid solar inverter powered by my battery
