    You can go smaller, I wire 2 number 6's for Hots, a #8 for Neutral, and a #10 for a ground.
    An electrician may go to the panel, see what is connected to where, the hots, neutral, and ground, Ground need to be green or bare, neutral needs to be white.
    When the range is solidly connected to ground, it should trip breaker, not become live, should something come in contact with the case.
