    Ac Grid
AI Thread Summary
Combining two 450-watt AC grid connections into one 900-watt system raises concerns about safety and legality. The proposal involves adding a second meter and connecting the outputs in parallel, but this could lead to issues with phase differences and potential overloads. The discussion emphasizes the importance of consulting a licensed electrician for any electrical work to prevent serious hazards. Power quality issues, such as voltage drops, may further complicate the setup. Ultimately, professional guidance is crucial to ensure safety and compliance with regulations.

question as grid connections are limited to 450 watts ac 220 v over her i like to combine two of these to one 900 watt grid connection?.
power ac comes from the same grid (source) goes trough a meter and connects to my home system.
so can i put one more meter there which is feeded from the same grid, and after the two meters both 450 watt can i connect the wires in parallel and can take a total load of 900 watt which is equally spread of the two grid connections? and connect that to my home system again? Power quality of the grid is very pour voltage drops and goed down a couple of times a day.. do i need to worry about fase differences or does this is no problem without burining up my system or the meters?

Contact a licensed electrician to wire your house for more power. Do not try to do it yourself. Fire and death could be the result.

Perfect reply. Thread is closed.
 
Thread 'Weird near-field phenomenon I get in my EM simulation'
I recently made a basic simulation of wire antennas and I am not sure if the near field in my simulation is modeled correctly. One of the things that worry me is the fact that sometimes I see in my simulation "movements" in the near field that seems to be faster than the speed of wave propagation I defined (the speed of light in the simulation). Specifically I see "nodes" of low amplitude in the E field that are quickly "emitted" from the antenna and then slow down as they approach the far...
Hello dear reader, a brief introduction: Some 4 years ago someone started developing health related issues, apparently due to exposure to RF & ELF related frequencies and/or fields (Magnetic). This is currently becoming known as EHS. (Electromagnetic hypersensitivity is a claimed sensitivity to electromagnetic fields, to which adverse symptoms are attributed.) She experiences a deep burning sensation throughout her entire body, leaving her in pain and exhausted after a pulse has occurred...
