Large room-size air conditioners are typically rated from 8,000 BTUs up to 12,000 BTUs, although some modern types may even reach 15,000 BTUs. These air conditioners draw 10 amps or more and must be plugged into a dedicated outlet. If any other appliance is plugged into the same outlet, the breaker will not be able to support the added amperage and it will trip the circuit."
