It sounds to me like the exhaust timer is just a switch. The 20 amp rating that the timer is given is the maximum amount of current that it can handle and still be within its safety specifications. It will work very well on a 15 amp circuit.

What is the electrical formula to for calculating the number of 15 amp recepticles that can be install on a 15 amp circuit?
There isn't a formula, but the general rule is that you allow for 1 amp per outlet and you load the circuit to 80% of maximum. For a 15 Amp circuit you can have a maximum of 12 outlets.
Can you use 15 amp wall outlets in living room?
Yes you may, you can even install them on a 20 amp circuit as long as they are the duplex type.
Can you install 2 conducters in a cuttler hammer 1 pole 20 amp breaker?
the answer is no period. You will only make this circuit breaker trip more often. you will need to install another 20 amp circuit or install what is called a piggy back circuit breaker. you can may find this at Lowes or Home Depot or better yet take a circuit breaker out of the electrical panel and go to a electrical distributor.
Have 30 amp double pole need 15 amp 120v?
Remove the 30 amp double pole breaker and install at least one single pole 15 amp breaker. It is best if the other slot is not left open so if you have another single pole breaker of any size install it in the 2nd spot so it isn't open when you replace the cover on the panel. For your 15 amp circuit you need #14 gauge copper wire or larger with a hot, neutral, and ground. Your 30 amp circuit was probably wired with #10 gauge conductors. These will probably work on your 15 amp circuit but it may be difficult to connect #10 conductors to devices.
What circuit breaker to install for 10 amp 250 volt circuit?
You need a breaker rated for 10 amps and 250 volts. The breaker must also fit properly in your panel.
Can you put a 25 amp fuse in a 50 amp maxi fuse holder?
Install the fuse that is required for the circuit.

There isn't a formula, but the general rule is that you allow for 1 amp per outlet and you load the circuit to 80% of maximum. For a 15 Amp circuit you can have a maximum of 12 outlets.
How many outlets are there?
Up to 12 on a 20 amp circuit. Up to 9 on a 15 amp circuit. But use common sense. If the circuit will be heavily loaded, as in a home office, then do not install that many.
Can you upgrade a 15 Amps circuit breaker for a 40 Amp for a 8.5 Watt shower?
Not unless you change the wiring for that circuit. The breaker protects the wiring and if you install a 40 amp breaker on a 15 amp wire circuit you will have a fire in your home.
What is a 15 amp electrical outlet?
A #14 copper wire rated at 15 amps is the minimum size wire for a 15 amp receptacle.
Can you use 15 amp wall outlets in living room?
Yes you may, you can even install them on a 20 amp circuit as long as they are the duplex type.
What is the max amp for 100' 14 gauge copper wire?
At 120 volts a 15 amp circuit wired with #14 wire used for a dedicated light circuit do not install any more than 1400 total watts in lighting. If used for an dedicated outlet circuit do not install more than 8 outlets.
You would like to install a 30 amp circuit and you have a open slot from a attic fan which no longer is needed and is 15 amp but how do you know if the 200 amp box can handle it?
See discuss question below.
What is difference between the ic555 and ic741?
The 555 is a timer integrated circuit. The 741 is an operational amplifier (op amp) integrated circuit. Both are some of the most popular 8 pin integrated circuits ever produced.
Can you install 12G wire to receptacles and 14G wire from receptacles up to fixtures in 20A circuit?
No. In a 20 amp circuit all wire has to be 12 AWG or larger.
