When Would You Use A 14 Gauge? [Solved]
Well, 14-gauge wire is great for light fixtures, lamps and lighting circuits that draw up to 15 amps. But if you’re dealing with kitchen, bathroom or outdoor receptacles or a 120-volt air conditioner, you’ll need 12-gauge. And if you’re dealing with electric clothes dryers, 240-volt window air conditioners or electric water heaters that draw up to 30 amps - yep, 10-gauge is the way to go.
