Reference no: EM13679952

For safety, the National Electrical Code limits the allowable amount of current which such a wire may carry. When used in indoor wiring, the limit is 15 Amp for rubber insulated wire of that size. Find how much power would be dissipated in the wire, when carrying the maximum allowable current?
