What guage wire do you use for 40A circuits
Trying to decide what guage wire to use for 40A motor circuits. Even though <R87> allows 12 AWG wire to be used, I'm thinking of using 10 AWG. I like to make things better than the minium. Am I just wasting money on bigger wire, or do you think its worth it? I also believe it will crimp getter. What do you use?
