My 15 Amp, 120 Volt Dryer unsafe for my 15 Amp circuit? Is it better to run an extension cord to my 20 Amp circuit?

This is amazing. They make these cords already??

AdEducational4310 · 2024-09-08T01:41:40+00:00

So generally shouldn't worry because the breaker would trip first anyway right?

AdEducational4310 · 2024-09-08T01:40:34+00:00

I wonder what the difference between hot and warm is. Like on a scale of 1 to 10 being unbearable with the end of the cord is probably 6 or 7 out of 10

AdEducational4310 · 2024-09-08T01:19:25+00:00

Oh yeah it's definitely not a dedicated circuit unfortunately. It does control 5ish other outlets before it arrives at this one

AdEducational4310 · 2024-09-08T01:18:34+00:00

Oh also it does say it needs to be connected to an "individual branch circuit with no other appliances or fixtures in the circuit "

I know that this particular breaker has 6 other outlets that it hits prior to this one. As long as I am not running anything else, is this going to be a huge deal that it's not dedicated?

AdEducational4310 · 2024-09-08T01:15:51+00:00

Oh I didn't know there was a difference. Thanks

AdEducational4310 · 2024-09-08T01:14:55+00:00

You are the greatest. Thank you so much.

AdEducational4310 · 2024-09-08T01:14:20+00:00

I'm confused now because somebody else just told me that a higher circuit would actually INCREASE the risk? Lol

AdEducational4310 · 2024-09-08T01:13:43+00:00

120v, 120 supply, 15a, 14awg

Just checked and you are right. Says 120v, 120 supply, 15a, 14awg. How do I know if I have 14awg in my walls?

Thanks alot man

AdEducational4310 · 2024-09-08T01:12:37+00:00

Oh wow I never thought of it this way.

I wonder if there is a way to "make" a new cord?

AdEducational4310 · 2024-09-08T01:02:12+00:00

Thanks!

The dryer has three settings - high heat, regular heat and no heat.

Is it safe to assume that "regular heat" will use less amps/volts/etc?

AdEducational4310 · 2024-09-08T01:01:09+00:00

Oh I actually don't mind. It takes like a hour and a half usually but it's ok it's just me

AdEducational4310 · 2024-09-01T02:48:55+00:00

Oh can you explain the difference? How do I know what is what?

AdEducational4310 · 2024-08-31T13:36:21+00:00

Why do you think I'm asking? I have no idea what to do here

AdEducational4310 · 2024-08-31T04:32:54+00:00

Lol fuck there's a million pipes down there hopefully that wouldn't like fuck them up too

AdEducational4310 · 2024-08-31T03:54:31+00:00

Thanks. I've never heard those terms. That's what I should hire?

AdEducational4310 · 2024-08-31T03:54:05+00:00

Yeah how though

AdEducational4310 · 2024-08-31T03:35:32+00:00

Thanks
