With that many outlets dont go straightforward.

First the line length starts to increase resistance, and that means the voltage will drop.

Then comes the problem with inductance even if you could get over the resistance. Long lines have inductance which means the current phase to the voltage phase shift. If the current phase isnt same as voltage phase the power will decrease. With 30 million outlets phase shift could be as high as 90 degrees -> no power even if theres current.]]>Jun 17th 2009 12:13PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/16/the-outlet-wall-concept-is-true-wall-wart-nirvana/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/16/the-outlet-wall-concept-is-true-wall-wart-nirvana/Jun 16th 2009 9:31AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/16/the-outlet-wall-concept-is-true-wall-wart-nirvana/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/16/the-outlet-wall-concept-is-true-wall-wart-nirvana/Jun 16th 2009 9:34AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/16/the-outlet-wall-concept-is-true-wall-wart-nirvana/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/16/the-outlet-wall-concept-is-true-wall-wart-nirvana/Jun 16th 2009 9:32AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/16/the-outlet-wall-concept-is-true-wall-wart-nirvana/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/16/the-outlet-wall-concept-is-true-wall-wart-nirvana/Jun 16th 2009 9:33AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/16/the-outlet-wall-concept-is-true-wall-wart-nirvana/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/16/the-outlet-wall-concept-is-true-wall-wart-nirvana/Jun 16th 2009 7:20PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/16/the-outlet-wall-concept-is-true-wall-wart-nirvana/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/16/the-outlet-wall-concept-is-true-wall-wart-nirvana/Jun 16th 2009 9:37AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/16/the-outlet-wall-concept-is-true-wall-wart-nirvana/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/16/the-outlet-wall-concept-is-true-wall-wart-nirvana/Jun 16th 2009 9:39AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/16/the-outlet-wall-concept-is-true-wall-wart-nirvana/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/16/the-outlet-wall-concept-is-true-wall-wart-nirvana/Jun 16th 2009 9:39AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/16/the-outlet-wall-concept-is-true-wall-wart-nirvana/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/16/the-outlet-wall-concept-is-true-wall-wart-nirvana/Jun 16th 2009 10:39AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/16/the-outlet-wall-concept-is-true-wall-wart-nirvana/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/16/the-outlet-wall-concept-is-true-wall-wart-nirvana/Jun 16th 2009 9:39AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/16/the-outlet-wall-concept-is-true-wall-wart-nirvana/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/16/the-outlet-wall-concept-is-true-wall-wart-nirvana/Jun 16th 2009 12:04PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/16/the-outlet-wall-concept-is-true-wall-wart-nirvana/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/16/the-outlet-wall-concept-is-true-wall-wart-nirvana/]]>Jun 16th 2009 9:39AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/06/16/the-outlet-wall-concept-is-true-wall-wart-nirvana/http://www.engadget.com/2009/06/16/the-outlet-wall-concept-is-true-wall-wart-nirvana/
