Most residential general lighting circuits are wired with 14-AWG copper conductors and are protected by 15-amp circuit breakers. However, there are many electricians who install 12-AWG copper conductors and protect them with 20-amp circuit breakers. How will you know which conductor size and which circuit breaker size will be used for the general lighting branch circuits in the house you are wiring?
If the cable in Figure ran for the whole of its length, grouped with others of the same size in a high ambient temperature, and was totally surrounded
with thermal insulation, The correction factors considered will be-----------
