Hello , I want to run 12/2 uf cable(already had left over) off my 100 amp panel in my house to a shed. The cable run would be 110 feet in 3/4 inch pvc conduit(35 feet under house in crawl space and 75 feet underground) to the shed.I was planning on using a gfci breaker rated at 15 amps to be on the safe side. Would 12/2 be sufficient for 15 amps at that run or would the uf cable heat up too much. I only plan on using for a 2 amp charger for boat,outside light and in winter to start my snow blower.
