The question you ask needs more information. The issue of dedicated lines is a very good solution for many problems. The gauge of the wire should be commensurate to the draw. I would strongly recommend ten gauge or larger on twenty amp circuits. The grounding is important and I drove two ten foot grounding rods. This combination improved my electrical draw since I on loud passages would dim the lights with my mono blocks. The incoming power from the utility is very dirty therefore I assembled a power conditioner from Transcendent Audio for the front end. The amps are plugged into the wall in the 20 amp service with a hospital grade or better outlet Hope this helps. Steve
Dedicated line
I have done a bunch of reading on dedicated lines and talked to an electrician and just want to confirm with people here this makes sense. I already have sub-panel which is on the opposite side of the wall where I have my audio stuff plugged into.
I am thinking of setting up two dedicated lines. Since the run of wire is short (10 feet tops) I was thinking 12 gauge to a 15A circuit breaker with TeslaPlex receptacles. I was thinking of using solid copper Romex wire. Does anyone have any other wiring suggestions
Grounding is my biggest concern, my electrician said I can drive a 6 foot grounding rod into the ground and attach the 2 dedicated lines to it. Does this make sense?
Thanks in advance.
