Do plug sockets have a special job?
it depends on what type of socket in question, if its domestic then all plug sockets are for general use hoover telly etc if they are commercial then certain sockets could have a dedicated use for example computers, you wouldn't use a hoover on these incase it tripped out and all unsaved data would be lost, that's only reason you wouldn't use them, the supply and breaker rating is exactly the same, so to summarise no they don't but always check to see what else is running off that supply just to be sure.
