[QUOTE="user 12139, post: 662742, member: 12139"] only difference between a 10 amp and 15 amp is the earth lug on 15 amp plug is a little wider Ask any electrician, if he was asked to change an outlet from 10 to 15 amp, does he also have to rewire from the meterbox to outlet, they'll say nope. However, you "may" need to swap the circuit breaker from 10 to 15 amp if the 10 amp keeps tripping. Ask if they were changing from 10 amp to 20, they'll say yes a new outlet, a rewire and new 20 amp breaker will be required. [/QUOTE]
