Understanding electrical service requirements for hosting Quanta Pod GPUs
Quanta Pod GPU systems require adequate electrical service to power high-performance computing equipment. Most properties built after 1980 have sufficient capacity, but understanding your specific requirements is essential for successful installation.
All electrical calculations follow NEC (National Electrical Code) safety standards, which require continuous loads to not exceed 80% of circuit capacity.
High-performance GPUs for computing workloads
Management and monitoring equipment
High-speed internet and local networking
Advanced cooling for optimal performance
Equivalent to running 3-5 central air conditioning units continuously
Find your home's main electrical panel, usually located in a basement, garage, or utility room. Look for a metal box with a main breaker switch.
The main breaker will be labeled with the amperage rating (e.g., "100", "200", "400"). This number indicates your home's electrical service capacity.
Homes built after 1980 typically have adequate service. Older homes may need upgrades, which we can assess during our site evaluation.
Our certified electricians will perform a complete evaluation during the site visit to confirm capacity and identify any necessary upgrades.
