Hi guys,
the simple problem is that my amplifiers draw too much current for one phase. Below is my power line how it is today and the requirement for each amp.
Phase1 = 40amp = 230volts
Phase2 = 40amp = 230volts
Phase3 = 40amp = 230volts
Phase1 = 8x 16amp lines (cant obviously max out over 40amps)
Phase2 = 10x 16amp lines (cant obviously max out over 40amps)
Phase3 = 10x 16amp lines (cant obviously max out over 40amps)
For best sound and no ground loops it would be best to run all the electronics on one phase alone with the same ground.
Krell KRS200#1 = 11Ampere
Krell KRS200#2 = 11Ampere
Krell KAS#1 + #2 = 10Ampere
Krell KAS#3 +#4 = 10Ampere
Krell MDA500#1 + #2 = 20Ampere (too come soon i guess)
So in total i need at least 62ampere on 230volt (124ampere on 115volt) that is without taking the power turn on transient into account. But the Krells have a slow system startup.
Could i change the Phase#3 braker from 40 to 70Ampere and reduce the phase 1 and 2 lines?
