[QUOTE="TJ Cornish, post: 25095, member: 162"] Re: Cable and Recepticle Ratings Marlow is correct - an L14-30 is a 30A 240V cable - you get 30A at 240V with a neutral plus ground. You can use 30A X 2 for line to neutral loads, giving you "60 amps" at 120V, but this is still really a 30A circuit. As Marlow mentioned, if you're putting Edison outlets on this you need breakers at 15A or 20A somewhere in the chain. [/QUOTE]
