Hi.
I design a control panel. The control voltage is 120V.
I use a 1.5KVA transformer protected on primary and secondary side.
I use a 15A circuit breaker on secondary side. From this breaker, I feed a terminal strip of 5 terminals.
Normally, all control is wired with 14 awg, but someone told me that I can use 18 AWG from the terminal strip. He told me that I must respect the max load of a 18 awg.
Is he right? Which Nec number I can refer to?
Thanks
