I have some 15 amp breakers and some 35 amp breakers in my breaker box.
I'm in the process of converting my library bedroom over to be a reptile room. There are only two outlets in that room and I'm assuming the breaker for that room is one of the smaller ones, a 15 amp, but I don't know for sure. On one outlet I now have four vision cages, with tube type fluorescent bulbs or LED lights and RHPs. On the other outlet an extension cord goes out the window to Dudley's shed, which has a pig blanket and a 250 watt brooder lamp. I'm not sure, but I think the back yard greenhouse may be on this same breaker, and the greenhouse has a night box with three RHPs in it.
If I add three more enclosures in that bedroom will I be overloading the 15 amp breaker?
This house was built in the '50s, so old wiring, but the breaker box was replaced about four years ago.
