1) Copy following link for live answer Dec 2012 to figure correct wire size
http://waterheatertimer.org/Color-codewire.html
2) Fixya posts 'recommended' answers based on computer guessing what you asked. Look for date on each answer.
Recommended answers can be totally unrelated, but sometimes they are spot on. These answers were posted by experts over previous years, and now fixya owns the work done by others and uses that work to answer questions that live expert does not answer.
3) This particular Question was posted under 'Chrome timer knob set,' and somehow ended up among timer questions. Each expert answers questions by expertise such as timer, water heater, electric wiring etc.
Often the questions do nor show a product or clearly state what answer is needed. People do not always know what they are asking for. That's why fixya is here: to help sort out possible answers.
So the expert sometimes guesses at answer, or the computer guesses which recommended answers to post.

i know what i'am asking for yall didn't answer my question i said what size wire do i need to supply power to this oven
I can't tell what oven you have. Look at rating plate on oven. It will show Volts and Watts. Then open link included in Dec 2012 answer to figure correct wire and breaker. Or add comment with Volts and Watts that show on rating plate, and measure distance between oven and breaker box, and I will make best recommendation based on National Electric Code, however local codes vary slightly. Also you local hardware and/or home center will have charts. Plus you can consult electrician at retail electric supply like greybar, etc.
