(4.0 mm
) wire. NOTE: 12 AWG (4.0 mm
) wire will be used for the Trunk wire only. 14 AWG (2.5 mm
)
wire can be used for all branch lines as long as each branch does not exceed 25% of the total Trunk wire
length. In this example, any branch that is less than 2250 feet (685 meters), 25% of the Trunk wire

length, can be installed with 14 AWG (2.5 mm
) wire.
