Powerload with HDB wall socket

[oakley_870]

I heard daisy chaining multiple extensions can be dangerous cos each plug in the extension has a lower max power. So high chance the fuse on the first extension might just melt. Not sure if it's true though.

the main PC components can just be plugged on the first daisy chained plug, and the lesser power hungry devices can be plugged on the subsequent line.

But the main power socket line should be a direct line out from the ** to ensure that there is no "share " from the other powerlines in the household.

I give an example. i used to have a power socket sharing the same line as the kitchen hob, the reason being was the routing was easier for the electrician to do in the earlier days. sloppy job from the previous owner. so in turn i have frequent tripped socket from the PC terminal side. i later changed and ran the cables to another socket, which i believe didnt share any powerline with any sockets. and i ran the pc lines to that alternative socket, it became very stable, and i started to load more items and did some checking with the power loading and temps.

Has been close to 6-7 years since then, loaded about 2x 10socket plugs, loaded with 2pcs and multiple ext hard drives and monitors. so far quite ok la. fingers crossed...

Im seeking a more safer solution by breaking the distribution. but without the power lines plan, its rather hard to know which lines are "unshared" since i do not live in a BTO or know how they did the lines without smashing the walls thou.
