Par lamps and standard household outlets
Thu, 26 Nov 2009, 04:08 pmHi, I would really appreciate some help on this ... I have some PAR16 (60 Watt) lamps and i was wondering is it okay to plug about 4 into a power board and into a standard 240v household outlet? I was wondering, because just now I tried plugging ONE into a powerboard and into an outlet and the lamp blew and tripped the circuit ... so I'm not sure what to think anymore.
Help would be appreciated, I deal with mostly sound and lights are really my epic weakness =) Thanks in advance!
When you buy a powerboard
Sat, 28 Nov 2009, 11:41 amWhen you buy a powerboard with a plug and 4 sockets and a circuit breaker for $3 retail, it is hardly surprising that the quality may be lacking, to make one out of rated components would cost $50
