I'm moving to a new house that has a great brew room, except it only has one circuit supplying power to it. The power box is across the house and would require extreme (read: expensive) work to get more lines over.
So I'm considering attempting to run everything on the one circuit if the load isn't too high. Other than a few lightbulbs, the only other electrical requirements are my fridges. This is what I have:
Kegerator (dorm fridge)
Another dorm fridge (I'm willing to get rid of this one)
A kitchen fridge
An upright freezer with temp controller (used for fermentation and also cold storage)
The fact is, in my current house I have all of these on the same circuit and I've never tripped the breaker. But I don't know if I'm pushing the limit and doing something I shouldn't.
I have a suspicion you smart people aren't going to be able to officially call it until I get the exact power requirements for each appliance, but any opinions?
