How to determine doorbell wire gauge
I'm going to install a Ring doorbell, but I'm moving the location of the wired doorbell about a foot away from its current location. I need to add a foot or so to the doorbell wiring. I've read that doorbell wire is 18-, 20-, and 24-gauge wire. I hate to ask what to some might seem like a dumb question, but how do I confirm the gauge of the wire that's currently installed? The house was built in 2009. I don't think there's enough there to read anything on the wires. Thanks.
