Power a bunch on at once even if the<br>normal load is well within the capacity of the breaker or other<br>devices, it may trip when it sees several times that for a half cycle<br>or so.<br><br>I plan on 10 max, through powered or not, on a 20 amp circuit. I'm<br>sure more would work, until it doesn't. One circuit for every 15' or<br>less of batten/rail, for 100% LED.<br><br><br>-- <br>Bill Conner Fellow of the ASTC<br><br>____________________________________________________________<br>For list information see <http://stagecraft.theprices.net/><br>Stagecraft mailing list<br>Stagecraft@theatrical.net<br>http://theatrical.net/mailman/listinfo/stagecraft_theatrical.net<br></body></html>
