Hello everyone !

I will receive 2 Antminer L3+ and 2 Antminer S9 very soon. I'm planning to put them all in the underground of my house, one per socket (220V).
2 of the Miners will be very near to a socket, but 2 others will have to be on a extension cable (4-5 meters).

What is better , putting the 4 Antminers on the 2 sockets that are near, with 2 strips ? Or better put the 2 extension cables and have 1 Antminer per socket and no strip?
Or are both options bad ideas , and I should rethink everything, and better put all the Miners with short cable and 1 per socket ?

Also, I'm thinking of a 1 to 4 Ethernet splitter to put all the ethernet in one, I guess there will be no problem with that.

If there is anything else I should be aware of , let me know please !

Thank you Smiley

Plugging them close to each other may heat up the electrical circuit behind the plugs overtime. I would actually prefer using sockets that are somewhat away from each other.

Of course, this all depends on your electrical wiring inside your house.

Ok thank you. I know it depends on each house, but 2 machines on 2 sockets 20 cm from each other would be risky for the electric circuit?

And I guess 2 sockets with 20 cm space and 2 more 5 meter away with 20 cm space between them would be even more risky ?
