Q: Can I run two refrigerators on the same circuit?

• <div><p>No, you should not run two refrigerators on the same circuit as it is likely to overload the circuit and cause the breaker to trip or worse&mdash;cause an electrical fire. Each standard-size refrigerator should be on a dedicated 20-amp circuit. You should never plug a refrigerator into an extension cord or power strip as it can cause serious safety hazards. Refrigerators have built-in surge protection that safeguards them from the damage of <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/what-electrical-power-surge.htm">power surges</a>.</p></div>

Q: What are some common oven repairs?

• <div><p>Since there aren&rsquo;t many moving parts to an oven, the list of repairs it might need is relatively short. Most times, when a repair is needed, it&rsquo;s due to a part simply burning out. Some common oven repairs you might come across include:</p><ul><li><p>Broken door glass</p></li><li><p>Stuck or broken ignitor</p></li><li><p>Stuck gas valve </p></li><li><p>Fractured heating element</p></li><li><p>Busted control board</p></li></ul><p></p></div>

Q: Is it normal for my oven temperature to be slightly off?

• <div><p>The temperature on your oven thermostat is actually an average temperature. It&rsquo;s normal for an oven&rsquo;s actual temperature to vary by a few degrees at any given time. In other words, when you test the thermostat, your oven thermometer may never hit 350 degrees Fahrenheit exactly (though gas ovens tend to be more on the nose). You may want to take a few readings with an oven thermometer just to get a sense of why your <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/why-won-t-my-gas-oven-heat.htm">gas oven is not heating</a> correctly.</p></div>

Q: How can you tell if a cooktop is induction or electric?

• <div><p>Usually, surfaces that heat up or begin to glow when in use are traditional electric cooktops. Induction ranges only warm slightly, and often do not have an indicator that they are turned on (though some newer models have lights to mimic the glow of electric units). Because induction stovetops don&rsquo;t get very hot, they are considered safer than electric units.</p></div>

Q: Can I run a refrigerator on a 15-amp circuit?

• <div><p>You can run a small or basic standard-size refrigerator on a 15-amp circuit. But you should plug a modern, standard-size refrigerator into a 20-amp dedicated circuit. The refrigerator needs to be on a dedicated circuit, meaning it is the only appliance and outlet on that circuit breaker. This method prevents tripping the breaker and reduces the chance of an <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/5-ways-prevent-electrical-fires.htm">electrical fire</a>. </p></div>
