Create a post with the following:
- Calculate the amperage requirements of a typical home studio setup (computer, monitors, AC powered interface, and at least one analog synthesizer) based on each unit’s power consumption (in watts) and explain how to keep from tripping a breaker with that gear.
- watts = volts x amps
Not entirely sure I did this math correctly, but I have a fairly simple set up:
Laptop = 30 watts (30 = 120x.25)
Monitor = 45 watts (45 = 120 x .375)
Speaker = 150 watts (150 = 120 x 1.25)
The total voltage for this set up is 1.875, so I wouldn’t be risking tripping a breaker with this fairly simple setup
