I'll be renovating one of my bathrooms. (don't know exactly when) I'd like to bring a 20a circuit from the main panel to that bathroom since the GFCI is only 15a. (actually, every "protected" outlet in the house goes to a single 15a GFCI out in the garage) The NM from the panel to that bath will be around 72 ft. long. my question is: since the run will be relatively long, should I "derate" and maybe go with #10 wire as opposed to #12? (you know,the "one wire size larger" method of derating)
tnx,
tnx,
