[QUOTE="lasher, post: 3228684, member: 40522"] LOL electro magnetic waves travel at near light speed. except here i guess, 20 Amp EMW are faster than 50 Amp EMW - or more simply the electro magnetic wave? The time difference, assuming breakers with no malfunctions, is not measurable by any devices the average home owner has in their hoard of goodies. Having repaired DP equipment that has been lightning struck, plugged into 220 instead of 110, the damage has been confined to chips having their tops blown off, internal fuses blown, worst case is charred circuit boards. Having repaired radio equipment - military grade - that shorted from time to time, again the breakers and fuses did their job. But peace of mind is worth an electrician providing a 20 Amp circuit for your device. Do so and rest easy,,,but 20 Amps will start a fire just as quickly as 50. [/QUOTE]
