  • Dedicated circuits have a specific purpose with their own circuit breakers in your home’s electrical box. Dedicated circuits are intended to be used for a specific appliance or outlet, with no other outlets or appliances using the energy from that circuit. With a dedicated circuit, your appliances can access all the power they require without overloading your electrical system or tripping a circuit breaker. Home cooks can benefit from running several small appliances at the same time without tripping a circuit breaker when they use several 20-amp dedicated circuits. Learn more about your options for dedicated circuits:

    • 20-Amp Dedicated Circuits – These dedicated circuits are ideal for mid-range devices, such as kitchen outlets or home entertainment systems. Your modern kitchen can handle several 20-amp dedicated circuits to ensure your stand mixer, coffee maker, toaster oven, and other kitchen appliances run without interruption.
    • 30-50 Amp Dedicated Circuits – Your heavy-duty appliances draw a lot of power and need a 30-amp to 50-amp dedicated circuit to ensure your clothes dryer, oven, or water heater runs smoothly. You’ll benefit from double pole protection when these dedicated circuits are prevented from drawing too much power and potentially starting a fire.
  • Installing a dedicated circuit is important for homeowners in Houston, Tomball, and Conroe, TX. Mr. Electric of Northwest Houston would be happy to provide you with the average cost to install dedicated circuits. Dedicated circuits will protect your family, home, and appliances. Appliances that do not have dedicated circuits can draw more current than the circuit can handle. This process can trip breakers, blow fuses, and overheat wire insulation, leading to breakdowns and the possibility of electric fires. The wiring in your dedicated circuits is just as important as a functional circuit breaker. Having the wrong wire size or insufficient amperage can cause your appliances to overheat, possibly resulting in a fire.
