I (personally) ran 8/3 from my main, on a 60 amp breaker at a length of 20’ to my subpanel. Now, if the 12/2 from the subpanel to the outlets are nor more then 3’ per outlet x3. This is why I’m asking; I don’t want to harm my amps.
Mark, why is it weird, 12g wire is fine for 15 amps. When doing lighting, 14 is code, outlets get 12g. If you read the entire post, I wanted to segregate my tube amp & power conditioner, which now share a 15amp socket & breaker.
