Thanks and I don’t destroy very old Home Depot stuff I just restore it

[@edrisnouri3939]

im just curious why did they use 14/2 and not 12/2?

[@-_.._._--_.-.-_-_-_-...-.-]

Just what they had.

[@mcdaniels6188]

14-2 is rated for 15A, 12-2 rated for 20A. If your breaker is 15A, 14-2 will suffice.

Because that's what the existing circuit is wired with. Never mix wire gauges on the same circuit; always match them to existing.
