The receptacles will be wired in parallel with each other.
No. In a 20 amp circuit all wire has to be 12 AWG or larger.
How do you wire 2 receptacles together
A GFCI receptacle can extend its protection to regular receptacles connected to the output side of the GFCI. Each actual GFCI receptacle should be directly connected to a breaker in electric panel.
To wire receptacles in series, connect the hot wire from the power source to the first receptacle, then connect a jumper wire from the first receptacle to the second receptacle, and so on for each additional receptacle in the series. Finally, connect the neutral wire from the power source to the last receptacle in the series.
In the United States and according to the NEC, in commercial and industrial installations, you are limited to 10 receptacles on a 15 amp circuit. The size of the wire is not a determining factor. There is no limit to the number of receptacles on a circuit in a home and there may be local codes where you live that have stricter requirements.
Receptacles are not wired in series. Receptacles are actually wired in parallel, what this means is that all phase wires (black) in a receptacle's box should terminate to the brass screws on each device, and all neutral (white) wires in the box should terminate on the silver screws on each device.
To properly wire switches and receptacles in your home electrical system, follow these steps: Turn off the power to the circuit you are working on at the breaker box. Use a voltage tester to ensure the power is off before starting work. Connect the black (hot) wires to the brass screws on the switches and receptacles. Connect the white (neutral) wires to the silver screws on the switches and receptacles. Connect the bare or green (ground) wires to the green screws or grounding terminals. Secure the wires with wire nuts and wrap the connections with electrical tape. Install the switches and receptacles into the electrical boxes and secure them in place. Turn the power back on and test the switches and receptacles to ensure they are working properly. Remember to always follow local electrical codes and regulations when working on your home electrical system.
A wire terminal is used in electrical wiring. It is used to hold the wires when wiring switches and receptacles. There are different types of terminals including screw terminals.
UpBeat Inc. has a wide variety of smokers receptacles, from wall mounted receptacles to stand up smokers receptacles.

You will need to hire a licensed electrician to properly reconfigure the wiring. Attempting this without proper training can be dangerous and potentially violate electrical codes. The electrician can assess the existing wiring, make the necessary changes, and install the new receptacles to ensure they are safely connected.
The National Electrical Code (US) allows up to thirteen 20 amp receptacles on a 20 amp circuit. 120V x 20A = 2400 VA each duplex receptacle is calculated at 180 VA 2400 / 180 = 13.3333 receptacles, since you can't put a third of a receptacle in, you have to round down to 13.
