Title: Question About Wire For PSU (AWP3++)
Post by: MMMining21 on December 18, 2017, 01:24:15 AM
Hello everyone, i'm currently using a wire king-cord (10A and 120V) for the AWP3++ of my antminer s9. I was wondering if its safe, or should i get a bigger wire ? Thank you

Get a bigger one, 15A.  But APW3 can't run an s9 on 120V anyway unless you are only using 2/3 boards.

Thank you for responding, so 15A would be the ideal, how about the Volt now if 120 isnt enough? Thank you

Bitmain APW3++ power supply can only provide 1200 W power capacity when the mains voltage is 110-120V.

You need 220V voltage if you want to run a S9 with one APW3++ power supply.

Otherwise you will need to power two hash boards with the APW3++ and have another good power supply powering the third hash board and the controller.

If you do this, be sure that you don't mix two psus together in a same hash board, and power on the one connected to the controller last.

Thank you very much!
