A "dedicated" circuit is one to which only one device is or can be connected; therefore the circuit is "dedicated" to the device.
A NON dedicated circuit will therefore be one to which multiple devices can connect, such as the wall outlets in your home. Multiple wall outlets are connected to a common circuit breaker, making that an example of a non-dedicated circuit.

What is a circuit that uses only one device?
A dedicated circuit.
What is a dedicated outlet?
A dedicated outlet is a single circuit from a single or double pole breaker to a specific outlet or receptacle for a single specific device or appliance. An example of this would be a circuit for a refrigerator, microwave, dryer, range, etc..This is typically referred to as a "dedicated circuit". A dedicated circuit usually is supplying power to only one or perhaps two receptacles, such as a computer station. An example in your home under current code is your washing machine is required to be on a dedicated circuit. Dedicated receptacle circuits may be either 15 or 20 amp.A dedicated circuit is just what it sounds like. I'ts a circuit dedicated to one particular device. Most receptacle (you may call them outlet's) circuits will power several outlets. A dedicated circuit will power only one specific outlet or appliance. Some examples would be a refrigerator, a garbage disposal, or a microwave.
