Yessir. We have a number of light circuits in the house where there is 1-3 lights and two switches, one at each door to the room.


the switch only controls the light/ceiling fan so the outlets arent part of the problem.

that said, if you have more than just one light/ceiling fan on that switch, it may be maxed out on the amps its designed to handle.

if you have an unusual setup and you think you may need to upgrade the regular standard 15a switch to a 20a or 25a to meet the power draw, they are easy to find at the supply stores

Sounds like this would be cause for bigger concerns if your entire line was sized for 15a.
