Dedicated circuit needed?

I’m thinking of putting this microwave

and a dishwasher rated 7.1 amps and a disposal rated at 5 amps on a separate 20 amp circuit. From what I’m getting for total amps on all 3 is exactly 20. Is there any issue with this? All appliances are fastened in place.

Is this also a range hood according to 422.16(B)(5)?

No vent. It’s being mounted over a sink (which isn’t even allowed according to the instructions).

That microwave is rated at 950W, but that is the output rating of the microwave radiation, I believe. If you look farther down at the spec sheet, it says 1550W is the input rating. So your plan won't fly.

Ok, so much for that. But this is still ok on a dedicated 15 amp circuit I would think. I’ll just go that route. It just sucks I have to Gfi it as well.

Thought all dishwashers manufactures require a dedicated 20 a circuit.
