What is the voltage of C16 circuit? Power supplies input voltage?
Are you using any sort of extension cord to get power to the miners?
What are the cards?

Voltage is european 230V, if that is what you mean.
Extension cord Brennenstuhl Premium-Line 16A/3600W. (but tried with another extension -> the same situation).
To this 2 miners are connected, both with 2 PSUs, so 4 wires in total for the extension.
Cards are Asus Dual OC RX580 8GB.

try with 4 gpus on each miner if it works  it is an overload issue

I know sometimes  gpus turn on at 100% not say the 70% setting you may have.

so 4 gpus each should keep you under overload.

I will try.

Do you mean about overload the electricity installation at the place
Or you mean the overload of PSU's ?

There is 2x Gold Thermaltake Toughpower Grand RGB 750W per Miner.



The problem is only when for some reason they shut down or freeze.
After that when I try to turn on again, they blow the C type 16 Amps fuse.

When I manage to put them on [the miners], they work very well.

Hi all,

I have a problem; 2 Miners /6 GPUs each/, 2 power supplies 750W per Miner.
2 Miners together take less than 1500W.
It is connected to power extension for the current C16 fuse (earlier it was B16 and was changed to exclude something). 16 Amper.
Miners work normally, both. Until I turn off the extension or one of the Miners will freeze (then it also ends with turning off the extension out of electricity).

In addition, the same situation would be if I cut off the remote socket on WiFi which I planned to install.

After switching ON the extension -> it breaks the plugs, it just breaks the previously mentioned C16 fuse.

I need to put it back again manually.
After that, to properly start the Miners - I need to unload the capacitors on disconnected cables by pressing the power Miner button.
Only then, it does start and work without problem.
So I have no idea then... why...

What could be the reason ? Where to look for a fault? What to check?

Poor Risers? Replace the Risers?

Thank you in advance.
