I have a quick question about wire size for a 3-phase circuit. The size of the breaker in the 3-phase panel is 20A. Does it work the same way as single-phase in that I can run #12 for this circuit or does the fact that it is 3-phase change things significantly? It is a relatively short run (< 50') so I don't think I need to worry about voltage drop and all that.
I am likely to run it in conduit so we are most likely talking about #12 stranded conductors here as opposed to a piece of romex (if that matters).
Thanks in advance for your time.
