crabjoe is on a distinguished road
I had a friend that does commercial work stop by yesterday. He was able to see the distance and for a single 20A circuit, he said I should be fine with 10/2, but nothing less. So I know now I can get by with 10/2 or 10/3 for 20amps.

So today I'm at Home Depot and look at wire pricing. I knew prices were high, but my jaw is on the floor!! This has got me thinking if I should just run aluminum. Maybe I should do 6-6-6-6 SER aluminum. I can't find it again, but I could have swore that it was available for 99 cents a foot. It was a place with in driving distance from me too.
