And the landlord is probably thinking, God forbid that tenants would ever
overload the circuits.


Except that the same microwave and fridge were on that circuit when we moved
in, and the owner herself had been living here for a few months when we
moved in.


I think that will make her less sympathetic to your problem.

The electrical code does not require upgrades to existing installations
that
were Code-compliant at the time they were installed.


I figured that might be the case.

Cheers.
