20 AWG x2C refers to a type of electrical wire configuration, specifically a 20-gauge wire with two conductors (2C). The "AWG" stands for American Wire Gauge, which indicates the wire's diameter and current-carrying capacity, with 20 AWG being relatively thin and suitable for low-power applications. This type of wire is commonly used in various electronic and electrical applications, such as in audio, low-voltage lighting, and communication systems. The "x2" indicates that there are two insulated conductors within the cable, allowing for connections in circuits requiring multiple wires.

depends on the amperage. 14 AWG for 15 amps, 12 AWG for 20 amps, 8 AWG for 50 amps.
Yes, if you are using AWG # 10 wire. If you are using AWG # 12 then the answer is no you must use a 20 amp breaker. On AWG #14 wire you must use a 15 amp breaker.
Since you're only going 6 meters as your distance the voltage drop will not be a significant issue and you can use #12 AWG that is rated for 20 Amps
Use a 20 amp fuse or breaker.
Normally it is a 20 amp using AWG 12/2 gauge wire. But it really depends on what size wire is on that circuit. If it is white AWG 14 gauge then use a 15 amp breaker. If it is yellow AWG 12 gauge then use a 20 amp breaker.
