Melbourne, Australia....................


From corresponding with various people in the intervening time who have made serious mains-power upgrades, as I am now undertaking major renovations to my house, I have taken the opportunity to replace this 1 x 20amp circuit with 2 x 32amp circuits. One will be for analogue comonents such as phono stage and preamp, the other for digital components such as CDP and TT power supply (and spares).

Here in the US the largest overcurrent device, breaker or fuse, that can be installed on a 120Vac branch circuit supplying power to two or more 15 amp receptacles (NEMA 5-15R)(a duplex is two), or a 20 amp receptacle (NEMA 5-20R) is 20 amps..... The minimum wire size for a 20 branch circuit is #12 awg copper.
