Working on a small house remodel, out of breaker spaces. Can I share the refrigerator and a wall receptacle in the dining room on the same circuit ?
Old house in conduit, plan to feed existing dining room receptacle first and change out to afci / gfci combo receptacle...residence is old but installed with lightly filled
emt...
Originally only had 2 kitchen counter recepts on 1 circuit, if I can share the dining room and refrigerator circuit ( I will use 12 thhn at 20 amps ), I can use the existing panel..
Thanx, dhsvcs
 
The dining room needs to be on a small appliance branch circuit. The refrigerator is permitted on the SABC unless the manufacturer's instructions say otherwise.
 
existing small house....will run from existing box fed with 1/2" emt with 12-2 romex. Stating conduit feed to first box because in the past, maybe still, an afci receptacle without a breaker had to be FED with m/c or conduit, not romex....need to update and see if that still applies...
