Funny how the big boys are digging their own grave...

Despite having tracking incorporated in the link, neither of these links can find the original item.
 
I find that infuriating , it seems to be happening more and more nowadays , you get to the site and just get presented with random garbage .

Both work fine here. Maybe there's some problem when viewing items meant for US use/sale (120VAC 15A is the standard smallest breaker size on a branch circuit).
 
IIRC, NEC is only concerned with total load on a circuit, not the number of outlets. However, there are minimum spacing requirements for locations - mostly in residential installations. As a rule of thumb, figure 1.5Va per outlet, so ten on a fifteen amp circuit and about thirteen on a twenty amp circuit. Of course, certain appliances/machinery require specific dedicated circuits.

Yes… I think it’s like 9 for 15 amp circuits and 12 for 20 amp. But you can see where I am going with this.
The other concern as you mentioned is current draw and this having what by looks is cord rated for 10 amp.
 
I don't know about NEC (electrical code writers), but UL will generally test a DUT under extreme load and see if it catches fire, or just harmlessly shuts down.

JR

Probably. Happens a lot. But it's useless (to them) if it errors out on a 404.
