I was wondering what cable size to use for wiring a 125V 12 amp fan that
is 100 feet away from the breaker panel.
Thanks.
You should be able to use 14 gauge wire.
It'll drop about 4 volts at 12 amps over that length, but that shouldn't
worry a fan much.
Borderline on a 15A circuit. 12 ga. would be better. 20 A breaker
