Electric new install
I am putting in all new 12v and 120v electric in a van. Quick question should i use two or three strand 120v wire for plugs? putting in a WFCO 8700 series power center.

I think 18g, while marginally acceptable for lights, is too small for any outlets.
18g, will easily carry 10A, with very little voltage drop for the length of a Class B or C.
That is my point exactly. An 18g wire will only carry about 10 amps, not 15 amps like the breaker. Thank you.
