That depends on whether they are copper or aluminum, the type of conductor
insulation in conduit or cable, the temperature rating, the quantity of
conductors sharing the conduit or cable, the ambient temperature, how they
are run, whether free air or in a conduit or cable, and even the temperature
rating of the circuit breaker supplying power.
