| Replacing generic RECEPTACLES lowrider57Running both lines to the ground bar in the panel means that they will share the same ground, less chance of a ground-loop.This is required by NEC in the US. All grounds must be connected to the ground bus at the service panel. | |
| Replacing generic RECEPTACLES elizabethThe requirement for a 20 amp service line is 12 gauge wire....As long as we are getting all technicalNot necessarily. Check the NEC and your local code. Code also almost always (there are some exceptions) requires that any "device" (rece... | |
| Replacing generic RECEPTACLES aniwolfeYou can use a 20a receptacle on a 15a line.Correct. But it's a violation of the NEC and potentially hazardous, because the 15A breaker can 't protect against the potential 20A load, would could cause overheating of the wire inside the wa... | |
