some of my old plug sockets need replacing, they are old funky and worn out.
the kitchen circuit seems to be 20amps at breaker. but all the plugs were normal 15amp with normal non T slot for those 20amp devices. so am i ok just sticking with 15amp sockets? i'm assuming that if a device doesn't have a T plug it won't use that much in the first place right?
20amp decorator socket costs a lot more 4x more at homedepot! serious gouging! oddly enough 20amp gfci outlet only 1 buck more
