Electricity, Current, Overloade circuit
I am assuming you read my 2nd POST, we both posted at the same time!
You dont think so, its a 20 AMP.. I assume you can run a 1000Watt HPS on one circuit. I am doing 400 Watts of HPS + 400 Watts of Flourescents + some fans (dont know wattage yet)
So lets add it up
4.0 (I took this off the ballast) + 3.3 for flourescents (400/120=3.3) = 7.3 Amps
I dont think 2 fans is gonna pull too much AMP but I will check when I buy them.. That will leave me with around 12.70.. For good measure, lets reduce it by 20% for safety purpose that leaves me around 10.16 (12.70 * .8). Now keep in mind I dont claim to be a electrical expert.. so my math and calculations could be wrong.. This is just what I was thinking.. If I am wrong.. Please tell me, I dont want to burn down the house
