Welding cable ampacity also known as current capacity or amperage rating refers to the maximum amount of electrical current that a cable can safely conduct. Then divide the total wattage by the voltage of the system typically 120 or 240 and that will give you the required current or amps.

To calculate the load requirement for a circuit first add up the wattage of all the electrical devices that will be on the circuit. The tables below are intended to be a general guide for wire size and amp ratings. These values for current carrying capacity are based on a copper temperature of 60 c 140 f an ambient temperature of 40 c 104 f and yield load factors from approximately 32 for the 2 awg cable to approximately 23 for the 3 0. The total circuit length includes both welding and grounds leads based on 4 volt drop 60 duty cycle.

The important specs to go by when choosing the appropriate wire that is suitable for your applications are the wire gauge amp voltage rating and the length needed.
