Quick elec. question

I'm goin to be runnin some dedicated power to my grow area, a 5'x8' closet.

I'll be runnin a 4" inline fan for air filtering,
a 6" inline fan for light cooling,
1 2' T-5 two bulb flo light,
1 dig 600w hps-mh light,
2 or 3 timers,
1-2 circ fans.

I hope to add a 2nd 600w hps light by 3rd or 4th run.
Also a CO2 system.
And 2nd T-5.

Will 2 30amp circuts cover all this?

Thanks for any and all input :joint:

And as always, :smoweed:

wouldnt 1 30amp service cover all that?

i mean it is nothing to be running 1500watt space heaters on a 15amp and is sounds like you are only going to be around at most 2000watts or so. but i am no electrician either just my experience.

i ran a dedicated 30amp to my grow and thought it was overkill for 600digi,6"fan,
and oscilating fans. figured i could add another inline fan and another 600 on a single 30amp service, but maybe not. :confused:

You could figure it out for yourself.

AMP * V = W

Assuming you have a standard 120V line (if you live in the states), that means that you have:
30 * 120 = 3600W available

Safe running capacity is 80%.

3600 * .8 = 2880W

So there ya go.
