A client of mine had a server rack that needed a 15 Amp circuit to power their UPS because the server kept going down. An electrician was hired to run a new circuit.
After the work was completed, I commissioned the UPS and all was well … until someone boiled the kettle at which point the UPS would start screaming and the kettle would stop working.
After crawling into the basement I discovered that the extra 15 Amp circuit was nothing more than a twin flex connected to the kitchen circuit.
The client was unimpressed and if I recall correctly, 20 years or so ago, the electrician lost their licence.
Yeah, sharing a circuit between kitchen and server room is bad juju, and lying about a home run vs a daisy chain from another circuit is dishonest and dangerous.
