When can you use AN in a sentence not coming before a vowel?

Do you use commas before because in a sentence?

Use of the word because as a subordinating conjunction - to link a main clause to a subordinating clause - should be simple, but a sentence's meaning often hinges on whether it's preceded by a comma.A straightforward sentence such as "We're off to see the wizard because of the wonderful things he does" requires no comma; the meaning of this sentence - "This is what we're doing, and that is why we're doing it" - is unambiguous. But when the sentence begins with a negative proposition, that's not the case, as these examples show:
