Questions about this size

What breaker can 1/3 MC Copper Cable go on?
Its ampacity is 130 A (75 C column of NEC Table 310.16). The breaker can be that size, or the next standard size up where NEC 240.4(B) allows it. Derate first for more than three current-carrying conductors or high ambient heat.
How far can I run it before voltage drop is a problem?
At 130 A on a 240 V single phase circuit, about 175 ft one way keeps the drop at 3 percent, the figure an informational note to NEC 210.19(A) suggests for branch circuits. Try other loads in the voltage drop calculator.
Can I buy it by the foot?
Yes, cut to length in whole feet from 25 ft, or on 500 ft spools. Cut wire is final sale; uncut spools can be returned within 30 days.
