Title: Power Cord Question - Whatsminer m30s Post by: Brian42985 on November 13, 2021, 12:31:13 AM Very new to mining, so sorry for what may be a dumb question. Initially I purchased a Antminer S9J. I am in the US, so I had an electrician come out and install a new 20 AMP 240V circuit and two Nemo 6-15P outlets, and ordered a 14AWG C-13 power cable.
I have since decided I would rather run and have ordered a single Whatsminer m30s from this new circuit, but can't seem to find a 6-15P C-19 (which is what I believe I need) in 12AWG, only in 14AWG. Is it likely I will need to change to a different outlet, and if so, should I upgrade to a 30AMP circuit. I'm only planning on running this one miner on the circuit, so I think 20AMPs should be good. Thanks, Title: Re: Power Cord Question - Whatsminer m30s Post by: philipma1957 on November 13, 2021, 05:02:25 AM Very new to mining, so sorry for what may be a dumb question.

Thanks, wait for a link. https://www.ebay.com/itm/164989561511? this cable will work with following receptacle. .. https://www.ebay.com/itm/184882974874? the cable will handle 16 amps 24 / 7 the receptacle will handle 16 amps 24 / 7 so if you are 240 volts it will do 3840 watts safely but if you are 220 volts it will do 3520 watts safely I like locking plugs. |
