Comment on Easy-to-use solar panels are coming, but utilities are trying to delay them

I think the risk is more that someone has a 15A-rated outlet on a 15A circuit breaker, plugs a solar panel into one socket and then a power strip with 30A of space heaters into the other socket. Breaker doesn’t trip because the main panel is only providing 15A, but the outlet lights on fire.

Not sure why that isn’t a problem in places these are more common.
