so im a home miner, purchased both the SP30 and SP10 group buys (thank you Spondoolies-Tech and RoadStress) , definitely not an electrician so maybe you guys can answer this for me..
im reading everywhere that we want 220V 30amp to run our sp30s, ive got an outlet pretty much 4 feet below my breaker box that i will probably get an electrician to flange me up the 220V / 30A with but since there are going to be two PSU's and two power cables, what if a person ran one to an outlet on its own 120V / 15A and the other to another separate 120V / 15A. If i could dedicate these outlets for only running an SP30 would it power it to its fullest? Would have to run a heavy duty extension cord from one of the outlets.
or should i stick with the electrician route? im not opposed to paying to have this done, just curious about everything and anything.
You will be good with a 30 amp 220, you can draw more than 6000 watts from that and your PSU's will stay cooler and run more efficient. Just get yourself a 30amp PDU and some c13-c14 power cables to connect your PSU to the PDU and you're golden. PDU is a fancy name for a big ass power bar. Make sure the outlet you install matches up to the plug type on the PDU you buy. Most are Nema L6, and this is what the outlet looks like. http://www.grainger.com/product/LEVITON-Receptacle-1PKK1The best deals on outlets and PDU's are on eBay by far. That $40 outlet can be found for $12 and PDU's for under $80. That is not a good idea. You should not put more than 80% load on a circuit, and particularly be cautious of the voltage (a 220V connection may drop to ~210V under high load, thus drawing more amps). An L6-30 outlet is typically rated for 4.992kW continuous load.

An L6-30 outlet is typically rated for 4.992kW continuous load. Its actually 240x30 which will give you 5760 at 80%. 6000 is safe especially if running effecient psu.

Before you load it up with more than a 5kW draw I would check with a multimeter to be careful. (check again under load, since that can cause a voltage drop and thus even higher amperage from the wall)

This is GREAT news, this excellent news!!! I was nail-biting a bit while sitting on the edge of my chair (well, it wasn't that bad), I can relax now. It's not the wait I was concerned about, it's the Spondoolies-Tech nay-Sayers who are waiting to ponce at the first opportunity with an "I told you so" attitude. ~Blaise

PCBs without ASICs on the 22th Performance will be 5,700 TH/s - 6,600 TH/s, depending on power modes. +-10% estimation, also depending on ASICs corners.
