This adapter simply connects each 120-volt receptacle to one of the 120-volt wires and to neutral. <div class="bvseo-author">Answered by: Upnorth</div> <div class="bvseo-pubdate">Date published: 2018-08-28</div> </div> </div> <div class="bvseo-question-answer" data-questionid="1336743"> <h2 class="bvseo-question"> Does this y adapter create two 120 volts outlets and does it use both circuit breakers if so how many watts to both? in other words can i get 3500 watts threw both 120 volts with this y adapter? </h2> <div class="bvseo-question-detail"> </div> <div class="bvseo-author">Asked by: Big Les</div> <div class="bvseo-answer" data-answerid="1594728"> Each receptacle will provide &amp;frac12; of the total running watt listed.
