In Reply to: 20 amp breaker for component posted by brain echo on August 5, 2003 at 20:04:37:
very, very few are rated at 20A. If it is a genuine 20A power strip, then it would have to be wired with 12AWG and have a NEMA 5-20 cord cap, which only fits in a NEMA 5-20 receptacle.If you put a 20A breaker in a 15A power strip, then you are creating a serious safety issue.
