An unconventional approach to POWER MANAGEMENT


Hi All,

Not too long ago I started a thread on power cords that led to a discussion of various approaches to power management that was very informative. That thread then prompted some experimentation that netted some very impressive results. If you're interested in learning more you can read about that here:

Now I'm interested in hearing from those of you who have installed dedicated breaker boxes for your systems, particularly those who did not have them at some point and then added one later. What were the results? I'm considering this approach and am hoping to hear a variety of experiences.

Thanks, as always!

If you have the space in your main panel for a dedicated circuit or circuits and don't have a very long or excessively complicated run, what is the logic for a sub panel?

As MC pointed out, it's just extra stuff.

With respect to following code, some of the setups I have read about on AG are irresponsible and downright scary! 20A outlets on 30A circuits! There are standards and ratings for a reason!
