Which is larger in diameter12 AWG or 15 AWG wire?
12 AWG wire is larger in diameter than 15 AWG wire. Wire gauge sizes decrease as the number increases, so a lower gauge number represents a larger wire diameter.
What is equivalent of 4mm2 in AWG?
2.5mm2 is equivalent to 14AWG 4mm2 is equivalent to 11AWG 6mm2 is equivalent to 10AWG
What type of wire gauge should be used for a 20-amperes circuit?
For a 20-amperes circuit, a wire gauge of at least 12 AWG should be used to ensure safe and efficient operation. Choosing the correct wire gauge will help prevent overheating and potential hazards in the circuit.
What is the smallest copper wire size permitted by the national electric code for a 20 amp single phase electrical circuit?
I think you mean either what is the correct size or minimum wire size needed when a branch circuit is protected by a 20 A breaker. The size is 12 American Wire gauge (AWG). 14 AWG is used for 15 A circuit and 10 AWG for a 30 A breaker. The lower the gauge the larger the cross-section of the wire.
Which wire is smallest in AWG?
The larger the AWG number the smaller the wire. 10 AWG wire can carry more current than 12 AWG wire.The wire sizes of 24 and 26 are the smallest that are used in the electrical.See related links below

12 AWG wire is larger in diameter than 15 AWG wire. Wire gauge sizes decrease as the number increases, so a lower gauge number represents a larger wire diameter.
Splice 5 12 AWG wires into 1 4 AWG wire?
No, code does not allow that.
What gauge wire for 20A?
12 AWG.
What is the name of the wiring on the 380 volts system?
depends on the amperage. 14 AWG for 15 amps, 12 AWG for 20 amps, 8 AWG for 50 amps.
What is equivalent of 4mm2 in AWG?
2.5mm2 is equivalent to 14AWG 4mm2 is equivalent to 11AWG 6mm2 is equivalent to 10AWG

What is the maximum apm capacity of 12 awg wire?
The American Wire Gauge (AWG) system is a measurement of wire diameter, not capacity. The maximum amperage capacity of a 12 AWG wire will depend on factors such as the insulation type, ambient temperature, and installation conditions. For typical household wiring applications, a 12 AWG wire can generally handle around 20-25 amps.
What gauge wire is used on a 20 amp breaker?
AWG 12.
What can you operate on 120 volts at 30 amps?
Yes, if you are using AWG # 10 wire. If you are using AWG # 12 then the answer is no you must use a 20 amp breaker. On AWG #14 wire you must use a 15 amp breaker.
Can 12-2 wire be used where only 14-2 wire is required?
Yes the ampacity of #12 is 20 amps whereas the ampacity of #14 is 15 amps, so you are well within the range using #12 wire.
