Which Home Appliances Need a Dedicated Circuit?

The National Electric Code dictates that every large appliance in your home requires a separate, dedicated circuit that is not shared with any other appliances. Our electrical experts specialize in installing a dedicated circuit and can answer any questions you have about the cost to install a dedicated circuit in your home in Broken Bow or Bixby, OK. If your appliance has a motor, it should probably have its own dedicated circuit. Appliances that need a dedicated circuit include:

  • Electric ranges
  • Wall ovens
  • Refrigerators
  • Large microwave ovens
  • Freezers
  • Dishwashers
  • Toaster ovens
  • Dryers

What Are Dedicated Circuits?

Dedicated circuits are a great way to update the circuitry in your home or business. Dedicated circuits have a specific purpose, unlike other generic circuits in your electrical box. A dedicated circuit is intended to be used with one specific outlet or appliance, and no other outlets or appliances will be using the energy drawn from that dedicated circuit. When you have a dedicated circuit, your appliances are able to access all the electricity they need without tripping your circuit breaker or overloading your electrical system. Home cooks often benefit from dedicated circuits because they run several small appliances simultaneously and avoid tripping a circuit breaker. Learn about your options for dedicated circuit installation:

  • 20-Amp Dedicated Circuits – The less powerful dedicated circuit option is ideal for mid-range devices, including home entertainment systems and kitchen outlets. The modern kitchen likely needs many 20-amp dedicated circuits for devices such as coffee makers, stand mixers, toaster ovens, and more.
  • 30-50 Amp Dedicated Circuits – The heavy-duty appliances in your home draw a lot of electricity and need a 30-amp to 50-amp dedicated circuit to ensure your water heater, clothes dryer, and oven can run smoothly. These dedicated circuits give you double pole protection, meaning they will not draw too much power and potentially start a fire.

Why Are Dedicated Circuits Important?

Dedicated circuits are an essential part of your home’s electrical system for a variety of reasons. The team at Mr. Electric of Tulsa is happy to answer any questions you might have about the average cost to install dedicated circuits. Dedicated circuits will protect your appliances, home, and family. An appliance operating without a dedicated circuit can end up drawing more current than that circuit can handle. Doing so can trip breakers, overheat wire insulation, blow fuses, and lead to breakdowns with the possibility of electric fires. The wiring inside your dedicated circuits is equally as important as having a functional circuit breaker. Insufficient amperage or the wrong wire size can lead to appliances overheating which can be another cause of a fire.
