[QUOTE="TJ Cornish, post: 59908, member: 162"] Re: PA System Power - Overloading Circuits Advice such as this is about as good as it gets - anecdotal experience in combat audio situations. My situation is similar - I have a PLX3402 running a stereo 4-ohm load and a PL236 running a bridged mono load into 4 ohms. I know from experience that under moderate load - no clipping, leaving a little on the table, I'm fine on 1 20A circuit for these 2 amps. If I'm running hard, then a 20amp circuit is marginal - 2 circuits is a lot safer - especially if there's a band with monitor wedges and backline. [/QUOTE]
