I have been calibrating all 12 printers. Last night the breaker triggered while 4-5 printers were heating up the print beds simultaneously. Heating up would consume about 250W each printer. If a print bed already reached its target temp, the power consumed would be only 30-70W. The breaker to my printer room triggers at 15amp, which only allows 120Vx15amp=1.8KW. With computer and lights etc. taking into account, it seems I need to be carful about the peak power consumption. Is there a way I can increase the power capacity of a single room? I am not an electrician but I think I cannot just replace the 15amp breaker switch with a 25amp?
