What is a 20 Amp circuit ?




I have ran 3 dedicated lines in my house for the stereo from the panel. I have 200 amp service in the house. Are these lines 20 amp?

I am no electrician , so can you tell me what constitutes a 20 amp line.

Thanks

Moonguy, The Shunyata 20 amp power cords are 20 amp IEC connectors at the equipment end but they are only 15 amp type (configuration) at the wall receptacle.

I can't speak for all brands of power cords but I did use one Virtual Dynamics and another brand that were the same 20 amp IEC with 15 amp wall terminations.
