Members tuchan Posted January 24, 2010 Members Share Posted January 24, 2010 I have had this issue before at a particular venue. Instead of the close on 240 volts over here in Oz we were running closer from 190-200. Some fool had wired all of the stage lighting and outdoor lighting to the same circuit. If you wanted stage power all of the lights had to be switched on:facepalm:. This in turn had amps clipping like mad all night to the point one just shut down due to not enough grunt to keep it running, especially when a band rocked up with such a large bass rig it was just nuts:eek:. Maybe I will be taking a generator to this venue next time! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members agedhorse Posted January 24, 2010 Members Share Posted January 24, 2010 That's a 20% undervoltage, most products are designed to work (but not deliver rated power) down to -10%. below that it's a crapshoot and some products include low voltage protection to shut the amps down at less than -10% Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
