I put a six gauge wire on a 70 amp circuit breaker, from my main 200 amp fuse box to a spare room, how many s3's will I be able to run on that circuit, air conditioner is on a separate 20 amp breaker.

thanks in advance

70amp double pole? You can pull 56 constant amps through each wire at 120V each.

You could run about 34-36 S3's off that depending on how good your PSU's are.

It will get warm.

Stop right now. Call an electrician and get him/her to install a sub panel, tell the electrician your power needs. Do this before you burn your house down and void your insurance

edit: get permits and have it all inspected

in New Jersey, USA

you don't need an electrician if you own the home and you live in it. You do need a permit and an inspection.

Thats true in most US and Canadian jurasdictions. Still Call an electrician

It was installed by an electrician, and he did put in a sub-panel, I just need my batch 3 s3's to get here.
