RE: 20 amp Duplex on 15 amp circuits? yes? no? don't care?

Posted by Duster on March 20, 2017 at 21:22:11:
Anecdotal evidence seems to indicate that audiophiles who install a 20A rated AC outlet on a 15A circuit, including power distributors are not being foolish about the matter. There are plenty of rules and regulations that apply to more dangerous user scenarios than powering a humble home audio system. Potential dangers such as these can be determined by an informed end-user to make good judgements. What is your opinion, jea48? TIA
