About 8 amps worth, if you derate the circuit for 100 percent duty cycle.

How many elec outlets can a GFCI detect?
7 on a 15 amp circuit and 9 on a 20 amp circuit.
Can you control 10 outlets with one 20 amp GFCI outlet on one 20 amp circuit?
Yes. I know of no limits to how many regular receptacles (outlets) you can "piggy back" onto one GFCI receptacle. However, in commercial and industrial construction there are limits to how many receptacles can be placed on any one circuit. These limits in the United States and according to the NEC are: 10 receptacles on a 15 amp circuit and 13 receptacles on a 20 amp circuit.
How many outlets can run off 1 gfi outlet?
Eight on a 15 amp circuit, tweleve on a 20 amp circuit, including the gfci receptacle itself.
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 14-2 wire be used for outlets?
yes if it is on a 15 amp circuit to keep it simple12-2 for 20 amp circuits

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.

What size circuit breaker do you need for kichen counter outlets?
Two 20 Amp circuits with the outlets staggered so a different circuit is on two adjacent outlets. Should be GFCI protected.
How many wall outlets can you have in a circuit using a A breaker?
Assuming this is not an office of a place where lots of the outlets will be used to power items that draw lots of current on a 15 amp circuit wired with 14/2 wire I would limit it to no more than 10 outlets and lights combined. On a 20 amp circuit wired with 12/2 wire I would limit it to a 14 outlets and lights combined. There is no limit in the code. You just use common sense based on what is going to be used on this circuit.

How many eletrcal outlets can you have in a garage?
There is no limit as to the amount of circuits you can have in a garage. If you mean how many devices on a 15 amp single circuit breaker then the answer is 12. Be sure to total in light fixture outlets and switch boxes.
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 number of plugs can a 15 amp circuit handle?
according to electrical code, a maximum on 12 outlets on a branch circuit unless the loads are known.
How many outlets can be put on the 120 volt circuit if the outlets are rated at 120 va per outlet?
120 va on a 120 v socket means you can draw up to 1 amp from the socket. The number of outlets/sockets depends on the amp rating of the circuit. If it's 10 amps you can definitely have ten sockets and your local wiring regulations might allow more, on the basis that they won't all be used at once.
