i assume all 9 would be on at the same time, so no diversity allowed 9 x 600= 5400 watts or 23.5A double up 47A.
good idea, was about to suggest that. give it a generous safety factor though.would it be acceptable to wire a few up and use a clamp meter to see what the fittings actually draw and use this figure?
So the 1.8 figure for discharge lighting is for start up only
Will be running at 600 watts when warmed up?
LOL. it's only us old buggers can still remember chanting out times tables parrot fashion, but 50 years on i can usually beat a calculator on simple sums.Yep, and i've just noticed that my maths is sh**e! 9x600 is 5400 not 4500, must have been a typo, honest.....
