Title: Re: How to set up asic miner electrically Post by: jackhandsome5858 on June 29, 2023, 08:37:48 PM I bought an Antminer E9 Pro. I currently only have 1 dedicated outlet. The outlet is an L6-20r. What do I need to get to hook this baby up? I can't seem to find a pdu that has an L6-20p with built in surge protection.

Where did you search? a simple google search takes me to this link (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09XQC3G2C/ref=sspa_dk_detail_1?psc=1&pd_rd_i=B09XQC3G2C&pd_rd_w=t5b6A&content-id=amzn1.sym.f734d1a2-0bf9-4a26-ad34-2e1b969a5a75&pf_rd_p=f734d1a2-0bf9-4a26-ad34-2e1b969a5a75&pf_rd_r=X5E84SQ2ZXNDBPHKRR0K&pd_rd_wg=Iwu2y&pd_rd_r=c3b252ec-6a26-41d8-b2d3-77eb54cbf5e3&s=aht&sp_csd=d2lkZ2V0TmFtZT1zcF9kZXRhaWw) Quote Metered-Breaker-Surge Protection PDU, 240V, L6-30P, 30A, 7200watts, (4) C13 & (2) C19 Outlets, Crypto Mining PDU, Data Centre PDU, ASIC/RIGS PDU This PDU is 7.2kw which is more than enough for your E9 Pros, it has 4*C13s which is enough for the two gears (each miner will need 2 sockets).

Ya sorry my bad, the one I linked was indeed L6-30p, couldn't find a PDU with both L6-20p and surge protector, how about using a good adapter like this one (https://www.pduwhips.com/products/2033-l6-20p-to-l6-30r-plug-adapter.aspx), it's rated for 20A 250V. That way you would have more PDU options and won't have to change the outlet.

I can't seem to find a pdu that has an L6-20p with built in surge protection. if you are in the USA. buy this https://www.ebay.com/itm/155204919329? https://www.ebay.com/itm/334394491902? surge protection pdu's are costly and likely to not be needed. it will be more important to protect your eth cables Title: Re: How to set up asic miner electrically Post by: jackhandsome5858 on July 01, 2023, 01:46:04 PM That pdu has an L6-30p plug which will not fit an L6-20r unless I'm missing something.

I had come across those but was unsure if that was safe to use not being familiar enough with electric. I guess since I won't be going past the full (or 80%) 20a capacity since I'll only be using that one miner. it should be fine. I will probably go that route. Thank you.

With only 1 E9 pro, you are not going to go above 10 amps, the E9 pro only needs 2200w which translates to 9.2 amps on 240v, which is less than 50% of the rated capacity of that converter, should be pretty safe to run without any issues. |
