I plan to run a circuit under my deck to my screened in porch. I will run 12 gage wire with a ground (THHN of THWN). What size conduit should I use, 1/2 ” or 3/4″ ?
Thanks

1/2" has plenty of room for a circuit with #12s. Depending on the kind of conduit you plan to use, you could even add a couple more.
Thanks for the info.
