    Electrical Safety.

    QUOTE=jkarp;1594213]The dedicated small-appliance circuits in the kitchen have an exception. They can be run up to 100% for non-continuous loads. It's also important to realize 120v is rarely 120v. It's more common to see 110v due to resistive line losses. A dedicated small appliance circuit...

    Electrical Safety.

    Good suggestions I would personally have a Blatz though...I know a bar that serves .75 long necks all day every day....LOL As far as the concertina bar that would be Art's Concertina Bar which I think is now Kochanski's Concertina Bar. I haven't been there in years though.
