What is common wire?
The “common” is
the “neutral” or “ground” wire

What is General wiring?
General-use and lighting circuits are typically
14AWG wire
, protected by 15-amp breakers; kitchen, bath, and workshop circuits usually have 12AWG wire, protected by 20-amp breakers. Acceptable cable. Most circuits are wired with NM cable because the cable is protected behind a finish surface such as drywall or plaster.

What is 22 AWG wire used for?
Here at SparkFun, we typically use 22 AWG wire for
prototyping and breadboarding
. When using a breadboard or PCB, solid core is perfect because it fits nicely into the holes. For other prototyping/building involving soldering, the stranded core is #1, just be sure not to let too much current run through a single wire.
