What else can I help you with?
Can you have a 120v circuit on a 30 amp breaker?
No, electrical code typically requires that circuits be protected by a breaker that matches the wire size. A 30 amp breaker is typically used for circuits with larger wire sizes. For a 120V circuit, a 20 amp breaker is more suitable with appropriate wire size.
Can you put 20amp breaker on 10-2 wire?
No, you should match the breaker size to the wire gauge. A 10-2 wire is typically rated for a 30 amp breaker. Using a 20 amp breaker on 10-2 wire could result in overheating and a potential fire hazard.
What size wire and breaker do you need for a 5000 watt garage heater?
Look on the heater and see what amps it is pulling. That will determine the wire size and breaker size. It must be on a dedicated circuit. 15 amps = AWG # 14 wire with 15 amp breaker 20 amps = AWG # 12 wire with 20 amp breaker 30 amps = AWG # 10 wire with 30 amp breaker 40 amps = AWG # 8 wire with 40 amp breaker
How big of breaker do you use for 115 volt?
Depends on the wire size used in the circuit. If you use AWG # 14 wire you must use a 15 amp breaker. If it is wired with AWG # 12 wire then you use a 20 amp breaker. If a AWG # 10 wire is used then a 30 amp breaker is required. The breaker protects the wiring from overheating so you must use the proper size breaker for the wire used.
Can you use 10 gauge wire to connect a 2 15 amp outlets to a 30 amp breaker?
No, it is not safe to use 10 gauge wire with a 30 amp breaker as the wire is not rated for that high of a current. It is important to use the correct wire gauge that matches the breaker amperage to prevent overheating and potential fire hazards. For a 30 amp breaker, you should use at least 10 gauge wire.
What is the appropriate wire size for a 30 amp breaker?
The appropriate wire size for a 30 amp breaker is typically 10 gauge wire.
What is the recommended wire size for a 30 amp breaker?
The recommended wire size for a 30 amp breaker is typically 10 gauge wire.
What size wire do I need for a 30 amp breaker?
For a 30 amp breaker, you will need a wire that is at least 10 gauge in size.
What size breaker can you use on a 7500watt generator?
Depends on the wire size you are using. If the generator breaker is a 30 amp then install a 30 amp breaker.
What size wire should be used for a 30 amp breaker?
For a 30 amp breaker, a wire size of at least 10 gauge should be used to ensure safe and proper electrical connections.
What size breaker should be used on a 20 amp motor?
30 amp breaker with #10 gauge copper wire
Can you have a 120v circuit on a 30 amp breaker?
No, electrical code typically requires that circuits be protected by a breaker that matches the wire size. A 30 amp breaker is typically used for circuits with larger wire sizes. For a 120V circuit, a 20 amp breaker is more suitable with appropriate wire size.
Can you put 20amp breaker on 10-2 wire?
No, you should match the breaker size to the wire gauge. A 10-2 wire is typically rated for a 30 amp breaker. Using a 20 amp breaker on 10-2 wire could result in overheating and a potential fire hazard.

What gauge wire should be used for a 30 amp breaker?
For a 30 amp breaker, a 10-gauge wire should be used.
How big of breaker do you use for 115 volt?
Depends on the wire size used in the circuit. If you use AWG # 14 wire you must use a 15 amp breaker. If it is wired with AWG # 12 wire then you use a 20 amp breaker. If a AWG # 10 wire is used then a 30 amp breaker is required. The breaker protects the wiring from overheating so you must use the proper size breaker for the wire used.
What size breaker does it take to run a outdoor well?
Normally AWG #10 wire on a 30 amp breaker but it really depends on the size of the pump. The pump manufacture will specify the size wire and size breaker needed.
