Looking to wire my first solar system in my 200 sf shed- All 12v, just some LED lights and USB outlets. I have 250 feet of 12/2 romex leftover and I was thinking of using it for my main runs around the cabin. The lights (6-7w) would be run in series along the 12gauge wire. The same withe the USB outlets.
1. Is it OK to use the 12/2 romex for the main runs in the shed
2. The USB outlets and 12v light fixtures have 2-3 inches of 18 gauge wire coming from them. Do I use butt connectors to connect them to the 12/2 romex? IS there a better way to connect them?
