Probably, as long as whichever of the two is fixed in place, and what the amp rating of the fixed in place thing is.

Yes, as long as art.422.16(B)(4) is not violated and the installation instructions for the microwave don't specify an individual circuit.

Manufactures should not even be allowed to make this call, leave it up to the NEC. IMSO of course.

I totally agree. When I see a wine cooler that is 3 amps and calls for an individual cir. it makes my blood boil.

They're doing the CYA thing. Using too large a blanket.

Think about it though, the average person that buys an appliance just plugs it in... I see what your saying, but I agree with Dennis. Just makes your blood boil.

No, they make sure it's on an IBC because they know exactly what those are. :roll:

I like when they actually hook the ground wire up to the plate screw. :smile: Problem Solved!

I am confused, I thought you guys where electricians that earned livings installing electrical equipment.
Me ... I would be fine if every appliance required a individual branch circuit.
Same with the hot tub that require a full size EGC, install it and charge for doing so.

Because, i'm talking residential, I cant just pipe a new circuit everytime the HO buys something...
Yes, I agree what your saying, but, on the same note, sometimes I just wanna get r' done and move on to the next job.
