This is a 120 Volt outlet protected against overload by a
20 Amp push-to-reset circuit breaker (Figure 3-3). Use
each socket to power a NEMA 5-15P or 5-20P, 120 Volt
AC, single phase, 60 Hz electrical loads requiring up to a
combined 2400 watts (2.4 kW) or 20 Amps of current.
Use only high quality, well-insulated, 3-wire grounded
cord sets rated for 125 Volts at 20 Amps (or greater).
