[QUOTE="Richard McLawhorn, post: 25994, member: 456"] Re: Cable and Recepticle Ratings Wow its been a while since ive checked this thread... The 50A connector is gone from the cable...it has been replaced with an L14-30 connector and the receptacle on my distro was also changed accordingly to match. The L14-30 receptacle is breakered with a two pole single throw 15A breaker. I guess I could have gone with the L14-20 instead but i had already bought the connectors and i needed to get it done. I don't own any other equipment that could be accidentally circuted into this, so im not worried about that. Everything that i own runs on 120 and i dont own any other L14-30 or L14-50 cable... Besides, wouldn't L14-20 still be an overrated connector at 20 amps, seeing that it would still be on 15A breakers? Potentially allowing a 20 amp stage stringer or the like to be plugged into the circuit... Silas, pushbutton breakers on the truss box would be a great idea until they trip mid show and they are in the air...have fun resetting those... [/QUOTE]
