What is an 18 2 wire?
When a wire is labeled as 18-2, it means that it is 18-gauge thickness (AWG) with 2-conductors (inner wires). You can generally swap out 18-gauge wire with slightly thicker or thinner wire. If you need a longer wire run, you might use the thicker 16-gauge wire.
Can I connect RC wire to C?
