We're renovating our kitchen, and I have parts of the wall open and can rewire circuits right now if needed. We currently have three 20A circuits serving the kitchen, as follows:
*Circuit 1: fridge, microwave, toaster, outlets.
*Circuit 2: disposal, beverage cooler (5 cu. ft. mini fridge), outlets.
*Circuit 3: dishwasher.
I ran some new wires because we're adding an induction stovetop and wall oven, and while doing this I also ran a wire to add a new 20A circuit because I worry that the current situation is a little overloaded, although we have not had trouble with breakers tripping. The question is how to distribute appliances between the circuits. I am thinking as follows:
*Circuit 1: fridge, outlets.
*new circuit: microwave, toaster, outlets.
*Circuit 2: beverage cooler (5 cu. ft. mini fridge), outlets.
*Circuit 3: dishwasher, disposal (moving the disposal to this circuit).
Does this seem like the best distribution of appliances between our circuits?
Thanks!
