One thing you can do is run during the night, saving a little on the a/c, if you run off season (not during he summer) you’ll be saving more…
Yeah I could time everything right to make sure I'm using less then what's needed.One thing you can do is run during the night, saving a little on the a/c, if you run off season (not during he summer) you’ll be saving more…
my 100 amp is running. 4 daiken 2 ton, 1 carrier 3 ton, 3 ge dehumidifiers 60 pint, 12 gavida 1700e led, 1 mammoth p 800w led, 8 luxx 645 cmh. i stagger when the luxx light comes on. pulling 95 amps with everything on.when i stagger the light schedule 70 amps. use your amp meter. all my lights run 240v.
my 3 ton uses 240 20 amp w/12 gauge wire. it only pulls 11 amp startup and settles down to 8 amp. its 100 amp per leg.What other loads are on this panel? If that's it ( what you posted) then 100A is fine. If that's your house panel and you have a typical home and 100Amp is all you have then no way 100 amp will be enough The mini split requires a 50 amp breaker and that dehue will require a 30 amp
i think the 5 ton pulls 22 amps then settles down to 18Ok. I was going to have a 60k btu mini split. Not sure how that works I believe they run all day unless I turn it off
put the light on 240 too can balance the load better instead of putting 7 amps on one leg you split it 3.5 on 2 legs.Yes my lights and dehu and ac will be om 240v. I think I will be like around 90 with everything on
one 3 ton can run 8 volt fl-1 led light full power with dehumidifierI posted a link above for the ac unit I was looking at 1 if 3ton and 1 is a 5 ton. I think I should be ok with a 3 ton
Whats the risk? ..... boooom? LolYa'll do understand you shouldn't run more than 80% of the 100 amp. If your running 90-95 amps on a 100 amp line you are taking a major risk.
Whats the risk? ..... boooom? Lol
Got it.
Yeah I wouldn't risk it if it's not going to work.Hope everything works out well for you, a fire would probably be the most horrific thing that could happen to someone's grow, especially if you live there with your family. Good luck and stay safe
You should consider running your LEDs on to 20 V, it'll decrease cost and consume less amps. If you have 100 A designated, you're in good shape. On the boiler plate on the AC, it will give a minimum circuit ampacity rating, That is the smallest breaker you can use for that unit.New room build. Need advise is the load can hols on my panel. Located in the US.

I need 8 120v plugs. Will have two trolmaster, a water pump, and an auto doser. (This should be no more than 15 amps breaker)
I think you should figure 3000 BTU's per light with the Gavita's. And you have a very large dehu figured.Ok. I was going to have a 60k btu mini split. Not sure how that works I believe they run all day unless I turn it off
