Wire gauge for a 200 ft run on 30 amps or 50 amps?
Anybody has a good calculator for wire gauge? I need to do a wire run of 200ft buried wire. I can do 50amps or 30amps. Any advise will be greatly appreciated!

I'll second what @Old-Biscuit said. Don't scrimp on wire. As wire is expensive in those sizes, it is none the less the cheapest part of the whole deal, when you consider also the just the hassle of blown fuses/breakers, brown-out damaged gear, etc.
