I put this under 'Growroom Designs & Equipment' because I think its the right place, though I could be wrong. Thanks and sorry in advance to admin.
I ran a 1.2kW HPS set up some months back. Since shutting down the small medical op I've been told that my installation of the electrical hardware had caused problems with other electrical equipment that was present. Namely computers.
The complaint was that my power consumption, surge on mains, or something like that, was the cause of spikes in the mains supply and as a result a handful of computers are no longer operational.
I'd like someone with electrical expert advice to shed some light on the issue.
Is it possible that my equipment could have that sort of effect on the property's wiring; thus causing sensitive computer hardware to fail?
Any comments are very welcome!
I'm about to double the lighting power consumption to 2.4kW, so if adjustments need making to the property's electrical wiring can someone let me know before I ram a room full of vital herbs then figure I need an electrician.
Cheers
