Umm,just went back to first posting,not specified Dwelling,or otherwise..If I read this post wrong,please forgive me..Originally posted by physis:
I thought we were discussing the 180 va for non dwellings.
I guess that the real issue here is whether article 220.14 is really about load calculations or actual installations as some have mentioned already in this post. The explanatory material (Exhibit 220.4) provided in the 2005 Handbook clearly indicates that a 15 amp circuit can have only 10 receptacles and a 20 amp circuit can have only 13. This seems to be where the confusion is since it under the article for load calculations. Does that make it mandatory to be installed than way? I'm not sure?infinity,care to elaborate further in page#106,Exhibit 220.4 of handbook?
