    Bryant electric electric baseboard heaters
    I have an 8' /2000 watt Bryant heater from a past home that I will install with a wall thermostat for backup heat in a 240 sq. ft room.

    I have a 30' wire run and have 10-2 wire and 30AMP double breaker. Will it be OK on the wire and breaker.

    Thanks
    Fred
