Although you can use 15 amp outlets on a 20 amp circuit, I use 20 amp
"commercial grade" outlets. These are designed for more use, will last
longer, and will make better electrical contact with the plug.

I took apart an existing wall in my home and found that 15 amp outlets

were
used on a 20 amp circuit. Should these be replaced with 20 amp?
