Wire size breaker size?

Hello,

I am wiring while I await the arrival of my first controllers, and have a question.

I have wiring already ran for a sign that I was going to put outside. It is a 10/3 wire on a 30 amp two pole breaker. Is there any reason that I couldn't run these wires to a PC controller as the two circuits to provide the power to the two controller ac inputs?

The master electrician that I work with is out of town so I can't talk to him.

Any help would be great, this would save me having to run new wires.

Thanks,
Pete

As long as it's 10/3 ROMEX/UF, with a seperate ground, I'd see no problem. (ie: Black, Red, White with a ground wire)
