How thickness of wire affects brightness of bulb?

The thicker the wire the less resistance it will have and will allow more electricity to pass without creating friction, the friction is what causes the wire to heat up and glow.
White wire a black wire a red wire and a bare wire?
The white wire is typically neutral, the black wire is usually hot or live, the red wire may be a secondary live wire or used for a separate function, and the bare wire is typically the ground wire for safety purposes in an electrical circuit.
Which is the Hot wire and which is the Neutral wire if the wires you see are a Brown a Blue and a Yellow Green wire?
In electrical wiring, the live or "hot" wire is typically brown or red, the neutral wire is typically blue or black, and the ground wire is yellow or green. So, in this case, the brown wire is likely the hot wire, the blue wire is the neutral wire, and the yellow green wire is the ground wire.
What colour wire goes to the breaker using 12-2 wire?
