I put a 20 AMP Outlet in the kitchen
the old outlet was 15 amp......my thinking is most kitchens
(house built 1986) should have 20 AMP Breakers
and the wiring is cooper romax
Should I go back to the 15 AMP ?

Is the wiring 12 gage or 14? If it's 12 then you should be OK with 20
amps, if it's 14 then stay with 15 amps. But as always, check your
local code if there is any doubt.
