    The document contains calculations for branch circuit loads and sizing for 18 different circuits. It lists the total load in watts for each circuit calculated by adding the loads of individual devices. It then calculates the current drawn by each circuit and selects the appropriate American wire gauge and circuit breaker size based on the current being less than 15 amps. Wire sizes of #14 AWG are selected for circuits with currents under 15 amps and #12 AWG for the one circuit over 15 amps. A 15 amp circuit breaker is selected for all circuits.
