Unless it's 2/3 Romex. It's not at all clear to me, what he's run to the
sub. I know he said 2222 copper, but that doesn't make sense either.


Wasn't it 2-2-2-2? 4 wires, all 2-gauge copper?

Here is what he wrote: " The sub-panel is 18ft away
from the main panel and is fed by a 2-2-2-2 wire.


Often, when people say wire, they mean cable. Since he's writing in the
singular, "a 2-2-2-2 wire", my assumption is that he means cable, however,
as gfretwell points out , there isn't any such cable. At this point, only
the OP can clarify
