With the same wire, how many outlets can you connect to a 20 AMP ?

For residential there is no limit?

Kiss, is this a true question, or a typo?


For residential there is no limit?

Residential, per NEC, has no limits on outlets in a general purpose lighting circuit.

Local codes may have a limit.

Common sense prevails here, as few electricians will wire a residential circuit with unlimited ridiculous amount of outlets on a circuit.

Knowing more about this circuit and the purpose would be helpful.

This is always a loaded question.

Is the limit similar to the 180 VA per outlet for our nonresidential circuits?

Is the CEC online as our NEC is?

I'm really not sure. I just know from seeing it on these boards.

I agree!

The only limit is the size of the HO's wallet.
