Electric Stove
Electric Clothes Dryer
Central Heat With Electric Coils
Tankless or Tank Water Heater
Larger Central Air Condensers
Any of these will be plainly marked with amperage requirements for circuit sizing, which easily translates to wire and breaker size. All of the above typically have a dedicated circuit and breaker.
