<p>You must have crap breakers. They should last a lot better than that. How did you measure the current anyhow?</p>

sorry Clay didn't mean to just send this to just you.<div><br><div>although I don't post here much. I can tell you from personal experience. go with a new beaker, if you trip the breaker to many times it will start to get "soft" and trip under less load. I have fried 3 20amp breakers do to tripping them. on the last one I tested the trip load on it from trip 1 to failure, and after about 10 trips it was down to 19.5 amps, 50 trips was down to 16 amps. 62 trips was the failure. don't know if this random info helps but load balancing helps a lot!!</div>

Make the mess. It's cheaper than even a small fire.<span><font color="#888888"><br>

Yep that's the real problem which will be fixed when (time) budget allows.<br>
Currently due to how things are setup I can't do this without making a mess...<br>

That's the point I was trying to make. If you can add a breaker dedicated to the computer equipment, you reduce the load on the original circuit that has ACs and whatever else on it.<br>
<br>
A 15 amp breaker costs about $10 bucks, and 12 gauge wire is less than a buck per foot.<br>
