The equipment grounding conductor in a flexible cord with the largest circuit conductor 10 AWG or smaller, and the equipment grounding conductor used with fixture wires of any size in accordance with 240.5, shall not be smaller than 18 AWG copper and shall not be smaller than the circuit conductors.
The most common sizes you'll find in residential work are 14-gauge and 12-gauge. Larger appliances such as electric stoves, electric water heaters, electric dryers and central air units will often use 10-, 8- or even 6-gauge wire.
According to Table 250.122, the circuit equipment grounding conductor for a 40A overcurrent device will be 10 AWG (10,380 circular mil), but the circuit equipment grounding conductor for this circuit must be increased in size by a multiplier of 1.59. Thus, you must use an 8 AWG grounding conductor (Chapter 9, Table 8).
NEC 210.19(A)(1) Informational Note No. 4 limits the voltage drop at the furthest outlet of a load to 3% of the applied voltage. This allows 2% drop in the feeder. Alternatively, the maximum combined voltage drops on the feeder and branch circuits going to the furthest outlet of a load should be limited to 5%.
Branch-circuit conductors that supply loads other than those specified in 210.3 and other than cooking appliances as covered in 210.19(A)(3) shall have an ampacity sufficient for the loads served and shall not be smaller than 14 AWG.

The largest standard size is 0000 AWG, and 40 AWG is the smallest standard size. It may also be called Brown & Sharpe wire gauge or simply the gauge of the wire. AWG is for single-strand, solid, round, electrically conductive wire.
The equipment grounding conductor based on Table 250-122 for the 50-ampere range circuit is a No. 10 copper or No. 8 aluminum.
Voltage Drops Recommended by NEC Alternatively, the maximum combined voltage drop on the feeder and branch circuits to the farthest outlet should be 5%. Section 215.2(A)(1) \u2013 feeders \u2013 Informational Note N° 2 have the same recommendations for feeders.
The larger the AWG number or wire guage, the smaller the physical size of the wire. The smallest AWG size is 40 and the largest is 0000 (4/0). AWG general rules of thumb - for every 6 gauge decrease, the wire diameter doubles and for every 3 gauge decrease, the cross sectional area doubles.
According to Table 250-122, the minimum size equipment grounding conductor permitted with a 40-ampere overcurrent device is No. 10 copper, but Section 250-122(a) says that the equipment grounding conductor does not have to be larger than the circuit conductors.
