dpc,
Yeah, I read the www.allaboutcircuits.com page on the subject, but all I'm going on is the inrush spec in the AC/DC datasheet. I don't know if they know what we know.
Your previous information is a helpful decision point: if we want <=6 in the chain (for a 20A breaker), then nothing...
waross:
The way I'm using the term 'daisy chaining' here is that there is only one AC connection from the wall to the first unit, then every other downstream units plug into the upstream's AC out connector.
So, sorry for the confusion, the ac/dc converters are actually connected to the AC in...
Do you have a pointer to a parallelable soft-start power supply? (yes, i'm googling as i wait.)
I thought that "What is the inrush current rating of a common hospital 120V outlet's circuit breaker?" was rather specific dribble...
This is in a hospital environment, but not medical equipment.
I wish to "daisy chain" AC/DC switching power supplies in a hospital environment and need to know how many I can link in a chain. I would prefer to do this without any extra components, such as relays and momentary switches.
What is the inrush current rating of a common hospital 120V outlet's...
For a completely different spin on this, what happens when I strap on a 2.4-2.5 GHz headphone on? Are the water molecules in my head resonating? How much power is too much?
