Question that I'm hoping someone can answer...
I have two portable Leviton DDS 6000 dimmer packs. Each has four channels. I am only running three source four 575w on each pack.
Each pack has two plugs that I have plugged into a surge protector (two surge protectors, one for each dimmer pack).
Periodically, the surge protectors trip and the lights shut down.
Anyone know why that might be happening? I feel like I am not pushing too many amps to the power strip.
Does it have to do with plugging both plugs into one power strip and then plugging that into an Edison outlet? Do you think my problem might be rectified by skipping the surge protector and going straight into the wall? If so, should I separate them out among two wall outlets?
I've never worked with a portable system before. My old Dove board would easily run four 575w Source Fours in the same manner with no problems whatsoever. I'm truly confused.
Thanks in advance.
