Try it see what happens... >:l Can you splice them? Yes. Should you splice them? No. It really all depends on what your over current protection is. If your #12 wire is on a 20 amp breaker, your #18 wire can melt and cause a fire without tripping the breaker. I do not know what is the amp rating of 18 gauge wire. -- Sparkfighter
18 gauge
Any wire size larger that a # 18 AWG can be fused at 2 amps.
Yes, if properly wired a 20 amp circuit is a great circuit for an 18 amp appliance. Properly wired means you've used 12 gauge wire or larger and the circuit is protected by a 20 amp breaker or fuse and all connections are secure.
Yes, 18 gauge wire can typically carry 1 amp of current safely. However, it's always good practice to consult the specific wire manufacturer's specifications to ensure its safe usage.
The ampacity of 18 gauge wire is typically around 16 amperes.
