Wire size for 110 amps at 250 feet

110 A at 250 ft one-way

Voltage	Conductor	Minimum size	Voltage drop
120 V	Copper	4/0 AWG	3.34 V (2.79%)
120 V	Aluminum	350 kcmil	3.33 V (2.77%)
240 V	Copper	1/0 AWG	6.71 V (2.80%)
240 V	Aluminum	3/0 AWG	6.93 V (2.89%)

Smallest size meeting NEC 75 °C ampacity (with 240.4(D) limits) and ≤3% drop at the full 110 A. Use 125% sizing for continuous loads; apply derating for more than 3 current-carrying conductors or high ambient temperature.
