What gauge wire should be used with a 60amp circuit breaker?
Use AWG # 6 wire.
Can you mix an 8-3 wire with a 30 amp double breaker?
You never, ever mix wire sizes within a circuit. However you can wire a 30 amp circuit using AWG # 8/3 wire, although that is overkill and AWG #10 wire is what you would normally use on a 30 amp circuit.
What size circuit breaker for GFCI circuit in a normal size bath?
Normally it is a 20 amp using AWG 12/2 gauge wire. But it really depends on what size wire is on that circuit. If it is white AWG 14 gauge then use a 15 amp breaker. If it is yellow AWG 12 gauge then use a 20 amp breaker.
What size amp circuit breaker should be used for 110 outlet?
The size breaker you use is determined by the size wire used in the circuit. If you use AWG #12/2 wire then use a 20 amp breaker. If you use AWG # 14/2 then use a 15 amp breaker.
Should 25 amps breaker be replaced by 20 amps?
For typical residential house wiring 12 AWG wire is required for a 20 Amp breaker. If you change out the breaker for a 25 A breaker you would have to rewire the circuit with 10 AWG. In that case you could up the breaker to 30 Amps. All outlets and switches should be rated at the same voltage and current as the breaker.
What gauge for wire can you use with a 15 amp circuit?
14 AWG.
What gauge wire should be used with a 60amp circuit breaker?
Use AWG # 6 wire.
What wire gauge should be used for a dryer installation?
For a dryer installation, it is recommended to use a wire gauge of 10 AWG (American Wire Gauge) for a 30-amp circuit or 8 AWG for a 40-amp circuit.

How big of breaker do you use for 115 volt?
Depends on the wire size used in the circuit. If you use AWG # 14 wire you must use a 15 amp breaker. If it is wired with AWG # 12 wire then you use a 20 amp breaker. If a AWG # 10 wire is used then a 30 amp breaker is required. The breaker protects the wiring from overheating so you must use the proper size breaker for the wire used.

What type of wire do i use for 240v steam generator?
For a 240V steam generator, it is recommended to use a wire with a gauge of 10 AWG for a 30-amp circuit or gauge 8 AWG for a 40-amp circuit. Make sure the wire is rated for the voltage and amperage of the steam generator, and always consult a professional electrician for proper installation.
What wire gauge should be used for an electric stove installation?
For an electric stove installation, it is recommended to use a wire gauge of 8 AWG (American Wire Gauge) for a 40-50 amp circuit or 6 AWG for a 50-60 amp circuit. This will ensure safe and efficient power supply to the stove.
How do you wire a 15 amp circuit?
Use a 15 amp breaker and 14 AWG wire and all switches and outlets rated at 15 amps or greater.
What AWG do you use on a 240v?
For 240V circuits, the most common wire gauge (AWG) used is 10 AWG for a 30-amp circuit and 8 AWG for a 40-amp circuit. Make sure to consult the National Electrical Code or a licensed electrician for specific wiring requirements based on the current draw of your devices.
