This def wont pass inspection for kitchen cabinets they need to be on alternating circuit so you do not connect blender and toaster and knocks out circuit or overheats the wires
They are and GFCI breaker at the panel. According to my electrician and the NEC, the plug strips are considered an "accessory" just like a plug in appliance, etc.
@@chuckgustin8376 you're welcome. There are some better plug strip options out there now, but I can't remember the brand at the moment. A quick Google search should bring them up.
@robert smith absolutely not. What specifically, are you referring to? Everything is installed per the NEC - from 20A GFI breaker, 12 ga wire, to no exposed wires, hard wired/soldered connections, and the power strip still retains its built-in overload protection.
Good job but unfortunately ur wrong. To be code compliant things need to be also installed per manufactures instructions. And this is probley a UL LISTED device meaning you can not alter it in anyway to stay code compliant. But they do sell cuttable hard wirable plug strips for this purpose.
Just brilliant
Thanks

correct - the kitchen accessories are on three 20A circuits (at least two required, per the NEC) 👍
How did you GFI protect it?
Absolutely! Installed a 20A GFI breaker at the box. 👍
Recepticals are not rated for 20 amp. GFCI ?

Did I just watch someone take all the fire liability back from their insurance company?
