Default baseboard heaters on 30 A circuit


" wrote in message
oups.com...
Greetings,

Can standard baseboard heaters be placed onto a 30A circuit provided I
use 10 AWG Cu wire? Or is there some requirement that they only be
placed onto a 15/20A circuit?


There are many different sizes of "standard" heaters. What is hte rating?


If I do place them onto a 30A circuit
can I make 12 AWG taps to individual heaters provided that the taps are
less than 50 ft?


Not with a 30A breaker


Can a "tap" come directly from the breaker box?

I have no idea what you mean.
