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!

You can use a different insulation on the wire that is less expensive if it goes in conduit as compared to USE type direct burial wire was my point.
Still needs to be rated for potential water that can get into conduit.
I thought I was being smart bu pulling romex thru 3/4” pvc that was well glued. After a couple years the hot went to ground.
