- inferiorhuman 3y agoIIRC NEC requires 20 amp circuits for the kitchen. However the only time I've seen a 5-20R in a residential kitchen is after the electrician got done with mine (he insisted code required the 20 amp receptacles).
- Kirby64 3y agoIt's not required, but it is allowed. And, the only thing you need to do is swap a 5-15 for a 5-20. No other work needs to be done and it's all compliant.
- briHass 3y agoHe's incorrect, unless it was a single receptacle. Meaning one outlet, the typical top/bottom (duplex) receptacles don't count.
