Can an electric toaster oven having an input power of 1700W 120V be safe to be used with a 15Amp receptacle?

No. The maximum wattage to be used on a 15A outlet is 1800 watts, however you should never have a continuous load of more than 80%, which is 1440 watts. Because you may be cooking something in the toaster oven for more than just a minute or so, it could become dangerous.

∙ 12y agoNo. 1700 watts at 120 volts is 14.17 amperes. By the US NEC, and (probably) by other jurisdictions, the branch rating must be at least 25% greater than the steady state current of the load, so you need at least a 20 ampere receptacle to run this toaster. Also, the toaster must be the only load on the circuit.

How can you find the ampage on an empty home fuse receptacle without calling an electrician?
A breaker box circuit fuse? Check the wire size. 14gauge use 15amp. 12 gauge use 20 amp.
1 household circuit connected to three electrical parallel outles are connected to 3 devices an 800watt electric kettle a 60watt trouble light and a 1000-watt toaster oven will it trip a 15amp fuse?
The total wattage of those 3 devices is 1860 Watts. Divide the Watts by the 120 Volts in the circuit and you get 15.5 Amps. That exceeds the 15 Amp fuse.
Can a 1000volts microwave be connected to a 15amp receptacle?
To my knowledge there is no such a thing as a 1000 volt cooking microwave oven. If you mean 1000 watt then the answer to your question is yes. W = A x V. Presuming that the 15 amp receptacle is on a 120 volt system then the amperage draw on a 1000 watt microwave oven would be A = W/V 1000/120 = 8.3 amps with 6.6 amps to spare.
