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?
In this case the heaters are rated at 500, 1000, 1500, and 2000W
depending on if they are 2/4/6/8 feet long.
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?
Some breakers allow multiple wires to be connected to them.
I have no idea what you mean.
