An appliance plug can be distinguished from other plugs by its?

Why would a circuit breaker that should be able to handle 2300 watts trip sometimes when you just turn on a 350-watt TV?
I would wonder if the items that are tripping the breaker are being plugged into the same outlet. There could be a problem with the outlet or the wiring in the box in the wall that the outlet is mounted in. If one of the screws on the back of the outlet that connects the wire to the outlet is loose, there would be a possibility of seeing your problem. Also, breakers can and do go bad. The more they pop, the more worn out they get. If you feel comfortable, you could try swapping the breaker in the box with another one of the same amp rating or just buy a new one since they aren't too expensive. You'll still have your old one as a spare or for an additional circuit to be added later. The TV could also act as a large capacitor and draw alot of current right when its turned on and charging up(like lights dimming when you turn something like a tv on)

Why does the reset button on a wall outlet pop out when something is plugged into it?
Assume this is a ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) outlet. The GFCI looks for current that is flowing to ground, in a manner that could result in electrical shock to a user. The appliance that is being plugged in could be defective, the wiring connected to the load side of the GFCI may be incorrect, or the GFCI outlet could be defective. Try using another appliance. If the GFCI holds, the first appliance is most likely the cause.
What is flex outlet?
An appliance cable or "flex" outlet is a type of electrical outlet which is NOT a "socket outlet" to take plugs for appliances so that they can be plugged and un-plugged. An appliance cable or "flex" outlet has terminals inside it. The terminals allow the wires in an appliance cable or "flex" to be connected to the household wiring in a building. The household wiring comes from the building's main electrical power panel, which carries the main circuit breakers. The circuit breakers are fitted to protect the household wiring from catching on fire if any circuit is overloaded. Such appliance cable or "flex" outlets also have strain-relief clips. A strain-relief clip helps to prevent the cable from being yanked out of the outlet if the appliance gets moved away from the wall where the outlet is installed. Such outlets, with terminals inside and strain-relief clips, are used for fixed appliances, such as ranges or dryers, which should never have to be un-plugged during normal use of the appliance by the user.

What happens when your stereo on for too long?
Many things can happen when your stereo is on for too long. If batteries are being used they will die from the stereo being left on. If the stereo is plugged into the outlet then the electric bill can be run up and there is a possibility that it will become too much for the power source and blow a fuse.
Sansui mp3 doesn't show signs of charging when plugged in to the laptop what am I doing wrong?
If the Sansui MP3 player is not showing signs of charging when plugged into the laptop, perhaps the wrong cord is being used. There is a data cord and a charging cord. They look almost exactly the same. It is easier to charge this device by plugging it into a wall outlet, so that cords do not get mixed up.
