I have large grow tent with 2 air cooled 600W hps, and 250watts of side lighting. Plus 300 watts of ventilation. (fans, intake, exhaust, light cooling).
So altogether i have about 1800 watts im using.
I have this load spread across 3 outlets. 1 light per outlet and the fans and side lighting on the 3rd.
However yesterday my power tripped. And all 3 outlets went out along with a few downstairs.
I was under the impression that all outlets were on there own 15amp circuit. so im not sure why they all tripped at the same time.
My question is can i use a kill-a-watt to tell me how much available power each outlet has?
For instance lets say on one outlet i plug in 5 amps of power would the other outlet about 8 feet to the left only have 10 amps available?
Can a kill-a-watt tell me this?
