??EDIT:
3) The primary difference between the outlets is their "face", which for the 20-amp unit adds the horizontal slot needed for a 20-amp wall plug, which no one uses....that, and the extra set of contacts for the horizontal prong on a 20-amp wall plug, which again no one uses.
4) If you notice, all premium power cables use a 15-amp rated wall plug, even if the power cable has a 20-amp style IEC plug....hmmmm.
My response:
So why on earth do the sellers/manufacturers of audio grade outlets make 20A outlets?
