Title: What power do I need to run 60 Antminer D3s? Post by: tongaexpress on January 26, 2018, 04:19:56 AM I just picked up 60 D3 miners on the cheap and I want to mine however I do not know what electricity system I need to install in my commercial building and what I will need total. Any help would be great so I can talk remotely intelligently to the electrician and know roughly what I will need before I speak with them next week.

From what I have read, the D3 runs about 1200 watts - that sucks up about 5-6 amps when running on 240v. My guess is that you will need a 400 amp feed - that should handle the devices and some A/C - you are going to have to have a lot of cooling. It is best to vent the antminers outside if possible to cut down on your A/C requirement - and your electric bill. I hope this helps.
