    You may think there are a lot of smart arses here... BUT you didn't ask a question.
    If you are asking about increasing a wire size of a circuit to lower the voltage drop, then yes... it's a solution.
    Next time... use one of these... "?" if you are asking a question.

    And a 12 would be just as good. If you want to use a 10 or 12, why not a 20 AMP breaker? What are you hoping to do?
