Over current is any current in excess of the rated current or ampacity of a


conductor which may result in risk of fire or shock from insulation
damaged from heat generated by over current condition.

Outlet is a contact device installed along a circuit for the connection of an


attachment plug and flexible cord to supply power to portable equipment
and electrical appliances. It is also known as receptacles.
