Circuit panel was fairly new, and this circuit was supplied with new orange 14-2 Romex. I think I found the problem. Anyone want to guess what it was? 14-2? Generally receptacles are wired to a 20A breaker. 14-2 has an ampacity of 15A (or less depending on fill ratio). Guess: Backstabs were used General lighting receptacles in dwellings are usually 15a. You have 20s in kitchens, laundry and bathrooms. Homeowners may wire 20s everywhere but builders usually do not. You just have to look at the balance if 15 to 20 amp breakers in the panel to see that. BTW if he backstabbed 10 ga wire (orange romex) into a receptacle he probably needed to drill out the hole. They are designed to only take 14ga wire. I have seen 12 ga jammed in there but they really had to work to do it. (speaking about the spring capture back stabber, not the spec grade where you tighten the screw) Doesn't it suck that we have to keep qualifying all mentions of "backstab" receptacles? yup, huge difference between "backwire" and "backstab" |
