If the branch circuit uses a 15 amp circuit breaker, it is appropriate to employ the NRG Edison 15. For a 20 amp service, use an NRG Edison 20. The service circuit breaker should be 20 amp rated with at least #12 AWG wiring or heavier (lower number) gauge.<\/p>\n<p>Recommendations for dedicated wiring:<br \/>\nThe AudioQuest NRG Edison 15 &#038; 20 AC duplex outlet can accommodate up to #8 AWG wiring, although #10 or #12 may have superior properties versus #8 AWG wire in terms of Noise-Dissipation, that is, routing RF noise back to the electrical panel and ground rod-stake. This is due to skin effect at radio frequencies favoring thinner wire gauges, thus making noise reduction more efficient with a thinner wire gauge. This is an important consideration when optimizing your system with a dedicated line, that is, a discrete Line, Neutral, and Ground wire that travels back to your primary electrical panel without other AC outlets being daisy-chained or series connected to or from any of these wire leads.<\/p>\n<p>The lower the wire resistance (using heavier wire-cable), the lower the AC impedance that is present at 50-60 Hz. This is an advantage for any power amplifier. However, it is equally true that providing optimal Noise-Dissipation (routing radio frequency noise away from your system\u2019s delicate components), is more efficient with slightly smaller wire diameters. Whenever possible, solid core electrical grade AC wiring will yield superior results. We find that when a dedicated AC line is installed, #10 to #12 AWG wiring is the best compromise regardless of whether the branch circuit is meant for 15 or 20 amp operation.<\/p>\n<p>A dedicated line may not be possible (nor is it absolutely necessary), particularly if the installation is in a rented, leased, or temporary space. Even with stock wiring of a 10 or 15 amp service, your system will benefit greatly from the installation of the NRG Edison AC duplex outlet.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":5401,"template":"","meta":[],"product_brand":[],"product_cat":[286],"product_tag":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-7625","1":"product","2":"type-product","3":"status-publish","4":"has-post-thumbnail","6":"product_cat-ac-connectors-and-wall-outlet","8":"first","9":"instock","10":"purchasable","11":"product-type-simple"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/audiotechhk.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product\/7625","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/audiotechhk.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/audiotechhk.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/product"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/audiotechhk.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/5401"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/audiotechhk.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=7625"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"product_brand","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/audiotechhk.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_brand?post=7625"},{"taxonomy":"product_cat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/audiotechhk.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_cat?post=7625"},{"taxonomy":"product_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/audiotechhk.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_tag?post=7625"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
