Great video, but something worth mentioning that I didn't hear you mention. You should never use more than 80% of the total AMPS for the breaker. Meaning that you should never draw more than 16 amps on a 20 amp breaker. And 12 amps on a 15 amp breaker.
I use 10 gauge or 8 gauge all the time, no need for using lighter cables, it’s always better to have it and not need it than need it and not have it .!.!. Lol
Make sure your sound and mixer are on different circuits??? Yeah if you want a ground loop issues, probably suggest some hum eliminators if you are suggesting using different circuits :)
pov Europeans watching this and smiling that we have 16A 230V outlets in our homes
Why would anybody downvote this video!? Everything he said was completely true
Hate ro say this, Rick but just because a device has a notch next to it does not mean it's always going to be a 20amp circuit. As an electrician, I come across this a lot especially in remodels. Building maintenance will sometimes use what is available. Though it's code, they will sometimes use what they have available to get the job done. Not trying to be mean or anything, just giving some information as an electrician. But the Kill-A-watt tool is really good tool to have for sure!
fine reminders.. you get 4 gold stars 🙂
Wow, your video it’s probably the only video on the TH-cam website that educate people on the types of extension power cords to use For music and audio equipment. Thank you.
A 20 amp Circuit actually max allowable usage is only 80% of 20 making that circuit is actually 16 amps. A 15amp circuit is actually 12 amps of use. Distance is referred to an electrical field as voltage drop. So yes the longer the distance the bigger the wire gauge.
Rule of thumb: don't rely on minimum - up the gage so that you don't damage your equipment. (uping means going from 12 gauge to 10 gauge.) Also, use Watts law: P=VI (watts = current times amps) The watts is the power you units need to operate and are listed on each piece of equipment. Your voltage should be 120 in the USA, and you circuit should be listed in the panel box.
Your legit the best Dj on TH-cam you cover such a huge variety in equipment, lights, sound etc helpful tips and you actually read and respond to questions all my respects to you 👍.
You've helped us tremendously bro. Thank you and we appreciate your time and efforts with us.
Best information I've ever heard on this topic from a Dj perspective. I'm sure there are electricians that have videos on this here on TH-cam but I've never seen one. Never thought to look. You just gave me one hell of an education. Thank you!!!
I’m a beginner and I learn a lot from your videos thanks bro 👍🏽
very helpful video. Had trouble researching power draw on equipment. Too many sites went into too much depth and was too technical for us DJs
Good video. Too many DJs don’t know this info!
I’m beginner so late to this video but thank you so much for all this information!!!!! Very helpful!
Out of all your videos I watch, this was most informative for me. Thanks
Great video! Thanks for the info and I’ve been looking for a product like the kill a watt. Cables and understanding power is such an important part of our job as DJs that not many fully understand it. Keep up the great work!
