Yes : but in a residential case a 15 amp circuit would be better
The National Electrical Code typically allows a maximum of 12 lighting outlets on a 15-amp branch circuit and 16 lighting outlets on a 20-amp branch circuit. However, these numbers can vary based on local code requirements, so it's important to check with your local authority having jurisdiction.
Lighting circuits (UK) are fused at 15A. If in doubt, check the fuse/MCB. Unless the 7A device is lighting, connecting it would be illegal in the UK. Don't forget anything else on the same circuit.
Yes, if properly wired a 20 amp circuit is a great circuit for an 18 amp appliance. Properly wired means you've used 12 gauge wire or larger and the circuit is protected by a 20 amp breaker or fuse and all connections are secure.
It sounds to me like the exhaust timer is just a switch. The 20 amp rating that the timer is given is the maximum amount of current that it can handle and still be within its safety specifications. It will work very well on a 15 amp circuit.
No, it is not recommended to split a 30 amp plug as it can lead to overloading the circuit. It's best to use a dedicated circuit for each appliance to ensure safe usage of electricity.
No, it is not safe to use a 20 amp outlet on a 15 amp circuit as it can overload the circuit and potentially cause a fire hazard. It is important to match the outlet with the circuit's amp rating to ensure safety.
No, it is not safe to use a 15 amp outlet on a 20 amp circuit as it can lead to overheating and potential fire hazards. It is important to match the outlet's amp rating with the circuit's amp rating for safety reasons.
No, it is not safe to use a 15 amp plug on a 20 amp circuit as it can overload the circuit and potentially cause a fire hazard.
No, it is not safe to put a 15 amp outlet on a 20 amp circuit as it can lead to overheating and potential fire hazards. It is important to match the outlet's amperage rating with the circuit's amperage rating for safety reasons.
No, it is not safe to install a 20 amp receptacle on a 15 amp circuit. The receptacle should match the circuit's amp rating to prevent overloading and potential fire hazards.
No, it is not safe to install a 20 amp outlet on a 15 amp circuit as it can overload the circuit and create a fire hazard. It is important to match the outlet amperage with the circuit amperage for safety reasons.
No, it is not safe to install a 15 amp outlet on a 20 amp circuit. The outlet should match the circuit's amperage to prevent overheating and potential fire hazards.

On a 20 amp circuit, it is safe to install up to 13 outlets that are rated for 15 amps each.
When you put a 20 amp receptacle on a 15 amp circuit, it can lead to overloading the circuit and potentially causing a fire hazard. The receptacle may not provide the necessary protection for the circuit, leading to safety risks. It is important to match the receptacle's amp rating with the circuit's amp rating to ensure safe electrical operation.
