Simple formula:
Watts = Volts x Amps

Since we dont know the Volts... it could be anything from 0 Watt all the way up to god knows how much Cheesy

For 120V that would be: 120 x 200 = 24000W or 24kW which is.. alot. Think most wall sockets are made for like 16Ampere.
For 12V (what GPUs use and i think most ASICs too?) it would be: 12 x 200 = 2400 or 2.4kW which is still a lot.

I would at least ask some kind of electrician friend or something how much your power lines can handle.
... or take the YOLO route and risk damaging your hardware and just plug one by one in and see what the breaker triggers Cheesy

My house is 200amp @ 240v

I have a sub panel which is 125 amp @ 240v.


Never run more than 85% for long periods of time.

I never run more than 25Kw.

Most I've run is 23kw.

How many watts can you run on 200amps
I have 15 s9 is that safe to run on 120v ?  Huh
