30 amps is enough to run 3600. But don't try to turn them up to 1000s. That box is intended to run 8 1000s at 220v 50 amp.
that's exactly what its hooked up to is the dryer slot on the breaker board. so would I just connect the two hot wires to the auto pilot and then connect the two hot wires inside the breaker box and then connect the ground inside the breaker box, run it too the room and mount the auto pilot on the wall?
I was trying to run 10 gauge. but I looked at the price of the 8 gauge and its 1.79 a foot I think 50 feet would be plenty so ima be safe and go with the 8 gauge.
You don't need 8 gauge 10 gauge correlates with 30 amp breakers.
the dryer out let is being used already for the grow room. I gotta take off the wires from the 30 am breaker and run a thicker wire to this box. all the lights are 240 digital ballast
I do it all the time for people. Pretty simple, don't ever plug in 1000s and only use 600s
it's going to be in a room that the setup will remain the same. 6, 600s so 3600 watts.
You can. It's really not needee though.
there is 2 hots and a ground in the box. It doesn't matter which side the hots go on. One on the left one on the right. The ground is inside the box, should be close to the entry of box. The instructions should clearly point out ground and hots. Or they will b labeled inside box.
