I'm know this topic has been covered thousands of times but I can't find a good explanation to what I'm looking at. I am putting in a basement bathroom, I'm wiring it now on a 20 Amp circuit per code, and today my bathroom fan and vanity lights came. They have #14 stranded wire in them. I have #12 wire from the breaker. Can I wire these lights into my circuit? AnyI guess what has me stumped is why they would build these units with smaller wire when a bathroom is required to be protected by a 20 amp circuit. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you
