Going start pulling wire next weekend. Code is 14/2 for most things. The wash machine. dish washer, garbage disposal, and frig require 12/2 wiring and need to be on there own circuits. Call me old fashion but the smaller wiring seems to be the norm now days, but makes me neverous. I know the insulation factor is better then it use to be, but still perfer the extra safety factor. I like 12/2 for all plugs and 14/2 for lighting. With the 12/2 wiring you just buy the better plugs verses the cheap one.
