I'm having trouble understanding what you're trying to accomplish by limiting power like that. Anyways... You'll have to check with the authorities where you live. It may not be legal for you do to the electrical work. That said, you can certainly replace the breakers in the panel with 4/5/7amp breakers. So you have a 200amp panel, and instead of the normal 15amp breakers for each circuit, you just pop in the smaller one. It may exists but I haven't seen a product that lets you "split" a circuit later on. Basically you want a standard power bar, but instead of 15 amps, to be 4amps. There are some circuit protectors, like http://aibelectrical.fegime-online.co.uk/section.php?xSec=1198&xPage=1 _______________________________________________ Tech mailing list [email protected] http://lopsa.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tech This list provided by the League of Professional System Administrators http://lopsa.org/
