Default House Wiring Question Regarding AWG Gage ?







"Robert11" wrote in message

Hello,

I read somewhere recently that the (new) National Electrical Code mandates
NM WG 12 gage for all
new indoor house wiring. Was always 14 gage in the past, of course.

Is it true that it is now AWG 12 for "everything" indoors to be Code
compliant ?

Thanks,
Bob


The 08 NEC does not require #12 as a minimum size conductor in dwellings
