The current-carrying capacity of a 14/2 wire, which consists of 14-gauge wire, is typically 15 amps according to the National Electrical Code (NEC). This rating is suitable for general lighting and receptacle circuits in residential wiring. However, it's important to ensure that the circuit breaker and other components are also rated for 15 amps to maintain safety and compliance.
