Title: Electricity control device
Post by: deskless on May 30, 2019, 03:15:22 PM
Is there a device that I can put to stop the rig if Ampere goes above 10 or Wattage goes above 1Kw?

There is and maybe this is what are you looking for.

Maybe what do you search is about to get hardware that could have metered the power distribution unit to keep your mining in the safe ampere, right?

Currently using Windows 10 with AMD setting control for undervolt. Sometime when rig reboots the AMD setting crashes and starts GPUs with default setting. It causes Amps to go over 10. I wanted to some hardware/software to detect it and shut the rig down or trip.
The circuit has 15Amps breaker but I would prefer to load of 8Amps or less.

Thanks

Perhaps change the breaker to 10A?

if he is in usa home breaker box is 15 amp as a minimum for 120 volt power.


I think I have an item link for him

this has a 10 amp fuse and will handle 110 to 250 volts

including usa plugs.

So if he is usa it will trip at

10 amps x 110 volts = 1100watts
10 amps x 115 volts = 1150watts
10 amps x 120 volts = 1200watts
