In electrical wiring, which of the following are proportional?

the diameter of the wire and the amount of the current

Explanation

Current flow through a wire increases the temperature of the wire. If too small a wire is used, the wire will heat up causing a loss in conductivity and possibly a fire. The thicker in diameter a wire is, the more current it can carry without overheating.
