Question,
(120/240v residential)
Doing service panel upgrades/changes and found wires that appear to be smaller. (conductor, not the insulation).
I would use the wire gauge on my strippers and compare it to new, but in that panel change would be 14's and 12's on 15 amp and 20 amp breakers... and those 14's and 12's definitely appear smaller.
Are they, or am I bonkers?
