Yup and if its a 15 pop a 20 in there for OC's sake!
(or do what I did when I moved back to NJ (in a 200 yr old house..) find a 16AWG extension cord that is 100' feet long, knock a hole in the retired kitchen chimney and run it from the second story down to the basement, so that you can plug into an outlet in the basement on a seldom used breaker to power your 850W enermax galaxy without tripping the upstiars
)
Well thats my experience anyway. 20AMP should be more than enough to power a 1500W PSU and a 24" Sony CRT :d
