Originally posted by Kev I hate to nitpick but the Cretaceous–Paleogene extinction did not kill 99% of life, it was around 3/4 and it wasnt directly from the impact of the big rock but the aftermath of it.
A better example is that volcano in 1814 that made it winter all year and caused famines throughout the world, the amount of gas we are huffing out is not even a fraction of the smoke that volcano did. notice we have never had a catastrophe like this since then? is that because we cant control the fucking climate to begin with? who wouldve thought…
Krakatoa? The emissions weren't that bad...it was the tsunamis that kilt everyone along the coasts. -

RNC chairwoman tests positive.
I’m sure we’ll be hearing lots of test results in the next day or two.
You better not get tested. You'll break it.
You're the typhoid Mary of STDs.
You should have listened to your parents when they said stay away from niggers. You sure showed them when you became a nigger whore.
They died of shame. Its your fault -
Originally posted by Jiggaboo_Johnson Wrong. The circuit is 20A/30A..the outlet is 15A…straight fins.
That's cute how you say 'wrong' like you're so full of certainty and confidence.
Go read the NEC. A circuit has to be rated in its entirety for one amperage rating which is based on the circuit breaker. There can't be a breaker of a higher rating that the outlet or wire that feeds it. -
Originally posted by Jiggaboo_Johnson Well it does matter…in the US a typical wall outlets is 125v 15A, in the UK a typical wall outlet is 240V 13A…
The typical UK outlets offer near double the wattage…which in the case of a kettle means it boils water near twice as fast.
No, the typical wall outlet in the US is 20-amp -
Originally posted by Archer513 Most microwaves in America are 1100-1200 watts. You can get 1800,but probably can’t make toast and coffee on that same circuit without tripping a breaker. I don’t know of any appliances I’ve seen wired for 220 other than electric stoves.
Most high power requirement appliances have their own circuit breakers and outlets with nothing else attached. All 110V 20-amp: refrigerator, microwave, toaster, clothes washing machine, etc.
Any electrical appliances can obtain whatever voltage it prefers by using an internal transformer. Hell...i used to have a TV that was something like 50,000 volts that plugged into a regular wall outlet -
Originally posted by Jiggaboo_Johnson I think you are missing the point.
Typically a kettle is plugged into a kitchen wall outlet…which is 110/120V rated at 15A (with the circuit being 20 or 30A). The plug "fins" tell you the device rating…straight fins = 15A, 1 straight and one sideways is 20A etc.
A US kettle has a Nema 5-15P on it….it's rated at 110V 15A….a UK kettle is rated at 220V 13A.
I reference again the wattage of bothe devices.
Good luck plugging a nema 5-15P into a 220V 30A outlet…lololol
(The NEMA 5-15 receptacle is the most common electrical receptacle in the United. States and Canada. It is a two-pole, three-wire grounding receptacle which is. used for a maximum of 15A and 125V.)
There is no point to a discussion that is wholly irrelevant.
The power required is mated to the receptacle that is appropriate. If someone wants a 100w light bulb or a 5-horsepower electric motor...the plug it in to something.
It doesn't matter if its in the US, UKistan, or the moon. Electrons aren't that selective. -
Originally posted by Jiggaboo_Johnson Do you have that 110V 30A in your kitchen?
Standard US wall sockets… are 120v 15A…
"In the U.S. , the standard ratings for a 3 wire grounded socket are 15 amps and 20 amps at 120 volts. Typically in a house, they are 15 amp rated but can be on a 20 amp circuit if there are more than 2 devices on the circuit. " (which is still lower wattage than 240V on a 20A circuit).
Just the facts ma'am.
Everything in the US is based on the NEC guidelines.
In my kitchen I have a 220V 30-amp for my stove, a 110V 25-amp (25-amp breaker, 10-gauge wire) feeding a microwave. Related, i have a 100V 20-amp feeding a distiller.
Like i said. 15amps is for low-power usage of lighting, fire alarm, etc. 20amp is for the outlets that have more strenuous loads. -
Originally posted by Jiggaboo_Johnson Here's the science for the umpteenth time..
In the UK, with a mains voltage of 230 V and a limit of 13 A per socket the maximum possible power to one appliance is 2990 watts (2990 joules per second). In the USA, with a mains voltage of 120 V and a limit of 15 A per outlet the maximum possible power is reduced to only 1800 watts.
Same with microwave ovens…if you have a 900W microwave the cook time is longer than an 1100W microwave.
Dummmbbbbbb
False.
The available outlet size in the US is unlimited.
I have two different 220V 50-amp outlets...one for a welder and one for an RV hookup
I have a 110V 30-amp outlet for car battery charging or generator hookups.
110V 15-amp is for lighting circuits. The norm is 20-amp for everything else. -

Wonder how many people around him have it?
