FAQs
Do I need a dedicated circuit for my microwave?
Many kitchens benefit from a dedicated appliance circuit for high-draw devices, but a contractor should assess your actual setup. This article does not assume a dedicated circuit is required.
Can you add an outlet anywhere?
Most locations are possible; the scope depends on access and distance from the panel. A contractor scopes it on site.
