One thing to note on the rules is that it contradicts its self on this issue.

It does say you must use #6 for main power distribution, but it goes on to say that the stated wire sizes are the minimum allowed.

I take this to mean that you must use #6 between the battery and breaker blocks, but other wise may use what ever you wish (as long as it meets the minimum in the rules).

So, if you want to replace #10 going to a drill motor with #8, then that is legal.
