[HECnet] Number of nodes online a bit low?

[Hans Vlems]

My house (Netherlands) is wired to all three phases of the mains grid. The default configuration is that just one phase gets a primary fuse (32A). Unless you've decided not to cook on a gas-fired stove in which case all phases get a fuse.
The max value for a primary fuse    is higher, 64A possibly.
The primary fuse box is sealed. Behind it are secondary fuses, in my case 6 x 16A. Which allows you to blow the primary fuse. It gets repaired free of charge, but only once (every n years).
I run all my real iron on one 16A fuse.

Is your "lab" in your dining room?

That's where all the 20A outlets are! (For hot plates etc. I guess, but
also good for soldering irons and twist-lock adapters within reason.)

What? Don't all houses have lots of 3-phase 16A 410V? :-)
(OK, so I did pick mine with a twisted mind, but sadly I then moved to 
another country and all my computers in Sweden are just sitting there 
powered off..)
