It will work until it doesn't. Not much difference between using another plug on the same circuit

As long as both units don't cycle on at the same time too much it won't be too much of a strain on the circuit
Wen we remodeled the house I had two 4 outlet plugs installed in the garage, each on it's own new breaker. On one of them I have 2 refrigerator/freezers, a stand up deep freeze and a 90 bottle wine cooler unit.
Haven't had problem one.

Make sure they are set at the same temp or one will pull the cold out of the other and that's bad for the compressor.

i have no idea what you are referring to...243 / 270...i just want to know if i can plug them both into the same power strip OR separate plug-ins on the same outlet Is it 243 volts? Should be fine 270 would be a better option. They run too much with 243. Don't get me started with placement.

I've got an extension cord coming out of one plug. It runs 20ft down my garage wall. At the end of the cord I have a surge protector. Into the surge protector is plugged a Frigidaire freezer and a full size Kenmore fridge/freezer. I have a freezer alarm in both should power fail.

Upload a color coded electrical schematic of every house in your subdivision and the answer will be obvious

Is it 243 volts? Should be fine 220/221. Whatever it takes.

Into the surge protector is plugged a Frigidaire freezer and a full size Kenmore fridge/freezer. I have a freezer alarm in both should power fail. Keep a fire extinguisher close. A typical fridge or freezer draws ~6 amps. Could be a little more or less. Better not have anything else on the circuit. It better be a good AWG rating on the extension cord as well. Not the best situation.

So did this get worked out? We need to log it in the TFF OT solution FAQ.
