What the minimum wire size for a general residential application on a 20 A circuit

Engineering
1 answer:
prisoha [69]2 years ago
7 0

Answer:

The minimum wire size for a 20 A circuit would be 14 gauge wire. However modern fire and building (in the United States) code dictates that 12 gauge wire be used for 20 A. This is for added safety because there is a chance that 14 gauge wire can be overloaded by 20 A if the situation is right.

Hope it helps! :)
