Wiring Rules

So looking at the electrical rules for this year, it looks like any custom circuit or relay circuit hooked up to a 20 amp breaker must use 14 awg wire, and not 18 like in previous years. It also gives specifications for smaller amperage connections, but is it possible to get smaller amperage breakers?
