Hi there guys I just converted my farm to 240. I was wondering what the amp draw of 1 Antminer s7 is on 240 volts!!
It is a 50 amp circuit. The breaker keeps flipping with 1 antminer s7 and 7 antminer s5 with the power factor a 1. The amperage for an antminer s5 is 3 amps and antminer s7 is 7 amps. So 28 amps on a 50 am circuit no problem but it does not work. It will run for 1 hour and then trip. Any help is appreciated. Thanks

Let me add up.numbers.

Shit psus do 80 percent so if you have all bronze at 80 percent

You boost higher then 28 amps at the circuit breaker.

So shit psus could be the problem.
Next you have a 50 amp circuit is it 100% miners?

Next so circuit comes out of main breaker box and leads to a socket in the wall.

Did,you plug a 50 amp pdu into your stove plug.

DID YOU PLUG A 50 amp pdu into your dryer plug?

Are you sure the circuit is all 50 amp just for the pdu?

Are your sure the circuit has proper wire gauge?

Needs heavy awg maybe 6 not 8 or 10.
