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

I may be wrong but I believe a 20 amp breaker is rated for 2000 watts but the code may only allow a maximum of 1800 watts.
