Ok, I have been looking at specs and others posts on here, and want to run this setup by some of you with expertise, please.

I have a 30amp 240V unused breaker in my panel. I am considering pulling it and replacing it with a 20amp 240v breaker to run the following:

Electrical Outlet Box: http://a.co/dTyC1Np
2 Outlets: http://a.co/0lJtr7d
Wallplate: http://a.co/crfuZkZ

with a #12 2-conductor with ground wire cable to the breaker. These outlets are rated for 15amp 250V each, the wire should be good for near about 3800w, and the 20amp breaker should be fine (1400w x 2 = 2800w / 240 = 11.67amp + 10% = 12.8amp). So, the wire should be good to trip the breaker before getting too hot, the breaker should not trip with 12.8amp draw, the outlets and faceplate should match.... Right?

If I were to use the 30amp breaker that is there and add a 3rd outlet - I would then need to go to #10 wire - right? How about a 4th outlet? It seems like the breaker would handle that, the outlet would be good, but the wire?

Then, each outlet to the psu with this: http://a.co/bBJndrd - again, rated for 15amp/250v - so good - yes?

Thanks for your input and advice!

Anyone? I'm gonna start wiring this up this weekend - I have #12 wire - but if I go with running this with 3 or 4 outlets on 30amp breaker, will #10 wire do it? I'm thinking it should be good for 3 outlets - but 4?

First S9 will be here, and hopefully up and running, this coming Tuesday!

Thanks!

I would look into getting a 2 pole 20amp breaker.

Then wire it up to a L6-30 Outlet

Depending on your voltage you will get anywhere from 5-5.7kw

Very close, but you want everything rated the same that way devices such as breakers can do their job and trip if needed and outlets can do their job and handle the amps that go by the breaker.

You should consider using the existing 2 pole 30 amp breaker and then use the l6-30 outlet. Then go on ebay and buy a used PDU, make sure it is rated for 240 volts and 24 amps.

https://www.ebay.ca/itm/HP-Rack-Mount-24A-200-240VAC-1P-Core-Module-PDU-EO4501-417580-D71-228481-002/401426932271?hash=item5d76e8e22f:g:sFsAAMXQwKdRfsDx

With the outlet ratings on this PDU you should be able to run 3 S9's with the numbers you provided. but they would each need to be on their own PSU because the PDU outlets can only handle 12 amps and that would be close.

Good luck
