Criticize my wiring setup please! I've got 4x1000w@10A lights\ballasts ready to go. I want to go 220v Theoretical setup: 50A Main Fuse > 16ft (6 gauge?) extension > 4x Parallel 220v outlets I plan on offsetting their startups by 5-10 minutes through timers to eliminate a power spike. Do I need a bigger breaker? Is the first ballast to power up going to be overloaded by the available power before the other 3 kick in? For that matter, what about the cheap $10 10A 220v timers I have? Are they ok? Could (or should) Rating: 5
