Dedicated capacity helps protect daily appliance use

A dedicated 20-amp circuit gives a selected outlet more appropriate capacity for devices that draw more current. The circuit still needs correct breaker protection, wiring method, grounding, and device testing to be dependable.

Kitchen appliance circuits should be planned around load, location, device protection, and clear testing before the outlet is turned over for use.
