EU bought SF850L trips the canadian breaker of my room upon turning it on


Recommended Posts

Hello! 

I bought an SF850L power supply for my SFF build in Europe and i am currently studying abroad in Canada (Quebec).

When i plug in my PSU and turning on my PC, the breaker of my appartment keeps tripping, even though the SF850L is normally compatible with the 110V current in Canada.

Does someone has any information to help me solve this problem?

Thanks in advance!

Maybe you need to see if you can find another circuit that is less loaded, or one with a beefier breaker. The initial charge when plugging the PSU draws a lot of current.
