The current-carrying capacity of a 10-gauge wire at 12 volts can vary based on factors such as insulation type, installation conditions, and ambient temperature. For landscape lighting applications, using a 10 gauge direct burial wire, like the 10/2 AWG 100-foot spool, is typically suitable for carrying about 30 amps under standard conditions. It’s crucial to consult the National Electrical Code (NEC) or local regulations and consider voltage drop and specific application requirements when selecting the right 12V wire for your needs.
