Electric Panel ---------------------------- Based on the answers you have proposed, Electric Panel is the correct choice.

There is a requirement that it must extend through the connector, but I know of no NEC requirement on when it must stop. --Sparkfighter

What wire is the commonwire 120 volt?

The most common wire ran in 120v residential is NM (Non-metallic) sheathed wire such as the brand Romex. 14 gauge wire generally has a white sheathing and can be used on 15 amp circuits such as lighting. 12 gauge wire is thicker, generally having a yellow sheathing and can be used on 20 amp circuits such as those serving receptacles. Considering future demands, 12 gauge wire should be used. Under no circumstances should you ever use 14 gauge wire on a 20 amp circuit.
