[QUOTE="Shawn Keck, post: 7444, member: 4132"] Need someone to check my math... Got a client headed to my neck of the woods from across the pond and need to provide 6 tables with 220V EU Connector power strips for a breakout session for their laptops and chargers. Fully comfortable with electrical theory as it relates to 110V in the US, but wanna make sure I am thinking about this correctly with minimal investment.
