This is, what looks like, new-ish construction is small-town Michigan. Unless the builder was grossly negligent, it's likely to have a 100 or 200A amp service panel, and 15A circuit breakers (not fuses) distributed according to code.
A, no way 1500W is going into a laptop, even temporarily with a surge. That's crazy.
B, no decent manufacturer builds a 1.5kW supply and doesn't have reasonable PF and turn on protections.
C, The kid probably has a fridge or something, its pump kicks on, laptop turns on, trips breaker. "Ha ha, laptop is so powerful it blows breaker", etc.
