Hello.
I have a 20 amp circuit with 12 gauge wire that I would like to tap from a receptacle and create a 14 G wire pigtail to a 15 amp switch to power new recessed lights that is using 14 G wire. Is it safe to do so?
If above is not safe, Are recessed lights take 12 G wire with a 15 amp switch?
Thank you.
