I need help!! or advise... I am changing my room's light switch to a more modern one... I read articles online and found it very simple to do, as always, turning the circuit breaker off as FIRST THING. But my question is the following: The breaker feeds 2 rooms, in one of them only the outlets, and on the other one (mine), outlets AND the switch, I have no idea what gauge is it either 12 or 14, the breaker is 20 AMP. The Light Switch says "only use #14 wire, I tighetn both screws the light seems to work perfect, but...what if the wires are 12 gauges? what could happened, should I take the old switch back, or no big deal... THANK YOU!!!!
