As a general rule when I wire something like this for my self, I take
what ever wire size it "should be" and use the next larger.

I figure that if something is overloaded, I want it to be the circuit
breaker and not the wire.  I figure going too big isn't ever going to
hurt anything, but going too small sure will...
