Can I use this to channel 14/2 Romex 110 voltage wire? Will it fit? Is there a building code issue and what is the rational?

I'm not an electrician but I believe that Romex has to be buried inside of a wall. However, there is probably enough room to run the Romex through but probably not any room for additional wires. This is intended for audio/video only I believe.

Romex will fit in it; but I would have no idea about the building codes where you are.

It will fit, but can you use it, I don't know. Building codes vary by regions and that question can only be answered by your local building inspector.

I'm also using.035 wire with mine. You will need to run a bit hotter then what you chart calls for.

I know you are going to find it hard to believe , but you can put the wires anywhere and it will work. This unit can not be wired wrong. I think I wired mine for 220 and used black and white for hot and green/yellow for common. Good luck. I have the book that came with the unit (such as it is). Send me your contact info and I will see if I can make a copy and get to you. my e-mail is phildi47@yahoo.com

I am not a licensed electrician, but here is my advice. I used this wire to power a bathroom exhaust fan. The run was less than 15 feet. I don't see a problem using it for a low voltage lighting application for recessed lighting in your kitchen. If you use 12 gauge wire make sure that you are not stepping up from an existing 14 gauge circuit. I hope my advice was helpful.

I'm a electrician 14 guage is fine it doesn't pull any amps bring led. You will be fine with 14 guage wire

You are going to need 14/2 wire powered from 15 amp breaker in service panel or any other power source such as a light or wall receptacle.

Yes, it will works. I used .110" dia. wire and the anchor support it no problem. The anchor can support from 8-12 gauge wire which is .080" to .0125".

I just tried with. a piece of ROMEX 14ga solid copper wire & it did slide into the terminal-block. So, yes it will accept a single 14ga wire.

I apologize for the late response but i have been very busy. i bought 14" gauge wire for my system. i really don't believe the brand matters. i would also recommend banana clips but they are also not necessary. when i get the chance i will try to include a link to the ones i bought.let me know if this helpsDex

I'm not an expert but my thoughts are the following:The source-connector (L14-30 at the distribution box) has a rating of 30 amps and the cable has a rating of 25 amps.The load with the L14-20 connector is only using a maximum of 20 amps.Seeing that the cable and the source-connector exceed the rated requirements of the load this is a good thing. So yes, that arrangement should be fine. Just make sure the X,Y, W and G terminals match correctly.If it was the other way around, 20A source and a 30 amp load that would not be safe.

I can not answer accurately. i bought mine because everything matched up spec/wire wise. im not an electrician. if it was me i would avoid using.

Sure. You should not have a problem. The unit itself is 2 amps, so you are in business using the powerline universal adapter.

There is no way this is 18 AWG or 14 AWG wire. I measured it with a micrometer and it is around 0.52mm (24 AWG). It should not be used with more than 0.57 amps.

Yes it will. You can use .023 wire (on 120v 0r 240v) with settings just as low as the 140. The 211 is great (I love mine), but it does have a pretty hefty price tag.

I think the ends are to a lose standard, for voltage and amperage. It has a good chance of fitting. Look closely at the end pictured and your unit.

I'm not qualified to answer that question. I'm not a professional. I'm using it for lighting & a bath fan. I use a 15 amp breaker with 14g wire, not a 20. I always check manufactures recommendations. There may be local codes as well to consider when running a new circuit.

I'm currently in the process of trying to run some 16 gauge through, and it's a bit of a hassle. The shielding on this wire is a bit "tacky", so there's a lot of friction, and it's a bit thick, so that might play a role in it. The smallest part of the tubing is about ½" in diameter, so probably more than sufficient for 14 gauge, but the opening in the back of the tube -- where the wire has to make a sharp 90º turn -- is only ¼" in diameter.
