If it trips the circuit they cant hande it and we turn it down I suppose.

I suppose my question now is how the £%&$ do the 30K rigs get enough power at squat partys for example.

That equates to about 150 Amps?
Yeah, mainly they use gernerators. Ive run a 10k system off 2 sockets and it ran sweet all night. Dont forget to check your fuse rating. Dont forget that modern trip switches are more sensitive to quick surges than long bursts of power. Best advice i can give is split it over as many sockets as possible. Get down to the venue early as you can and test it for an hour on full wack to see if it will trip...
