Fedot 1158 Posted January 22, 2016 Report Share Posted January 22, 2016 Hey errbooty i need an idea or a quick fix for a problem im having....I decided to ask here bc PC MASTER RACE. Here is my problem, The power consumption of my Server Rack, Gaming PC, Monitors, and Cooling Units Combined makes my Circuit box Trip(ALOT) So far i've used Power Cords to bundle power into my Office. I have 4 Power cords coming in from different sides of the House, but was wondering if anybody had experience with re wiring a room for Industrial power cables, IF so how much did it cost you and is it worth it. The reason i would like to Modify the electrical system is because when you enter my Condo it looks like I'm some crazy dude with Bundled Cables Going every which way... Also I need more cooling units Quote Link to comment https://olympus-entertainment.com/topic/6787-good-with-wiring/

Muthinator 3064 Posted January 23, 2016 Report Share Posted January 23, 2016 The fuse that keeps tripping might be going bad. Saying circuit box does not help much as there are generally at least a dozen breakers in one box.

QKSILVR73 257 Posted January 23, 2016 Report Share Posted January 23, 2016 You're probably drawing too many amps for the circuit. Try finding which plug outlets go to which circuit breaker. If you're in a condo these may be labeled for you. I know as a general rule of thumb, your PC in itself should be wired to it's own separate circuit. It is quite possible the breaker is bad. If they trip enough times they do go bad and get weaker. Quote Link to comment https://olympus-entertainment.com/topic/6787-good-with-wiring/#findComment-69862
Fedot 1158 Posted January 23, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 23, 2016 Yeah but the issue is im drawing so much power i utilize every fuse in the box lol so i need more power Quote Link to comment https://olympus-entertainment.com/topic/6787-good-with-wiring/#findComment-69863
orcpoc 121 Posted January 23, 2016 Report Share Posted January 23, 2016 does it kick out the main breaker or just individual ones? there should be ones that are rated for higher amps so plug your high usage shit into the outlets that they feed.

Dustin87 864 Posted January 24, 2016 Report Share Posted January 24, 2016 Its simple. You have a big cup of water, and you wanna dump it in your sink. But your sink cant hold that much water, so your sink overflows. You need a bigger sink. That bigger sink is expensive and should be done by a proffesional (A LICENSED ELECTRICIAN). rip fedots server room Quote Link to comment https://olympus-entertainment.com/topic/6787-good-with-wiring/#findComment-69921

Why don't you just move your server rack to a different part of your house? Quote Link to comment https://olympus-entertainment.com/topic/6787-good-with-wiring/#findComment-69926
