In the us typical household electrical outlets supply


In the U.S., typical household electrical outlets supply electricity at a nominal voltage of 120 V and a maximum current of 10 A. Suppose you are setting up a sound system for a large party, and an overzealous friend has found a 1 kW amplifier to supply power to the speakers. Can the electrical circuit safely supply the amplifier system when it is running at its peak power, or will the amplifier draw too much current and trip the circuit breaker?
