Most outlets have two or more plug-in receptacles, if each of one load was

circuits should probably be breakered with quick-trip 15 amp breakers. Check
your code book and call someone that knows! My post is merely one

I didn't write outlet I wrote single receptacle. So as they might say
in a court room drama, asked and answered council, argumentative.
