There are three big reasons to get things right from a home theater electrical standpoint:
1. Not having enough power to supply your audio-video gear
2. Audio and/or video hum
3. Noise from other electrical components
In this video, we break down how to get the best electrical setup for your home theater!

An often overlooked but very important topic when planning a home theater. Great advice in this video.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Great video!
Other notes: If you have an unfinished room, try to future-proof electric for any additions you plan to make down the road.
Starting with a TV but want to move to a projector? Put an outlet at the potential projector location.
Other things that I plan for are bigger amps, more power hungry projectors (240v), micro LED displays, strip lighting, etc.
Once Sheetrock is up, putting in new circuits become much more challenging to add.
Yes, very great points! Thanks for sharing!
so glad we have 230v single phase 100amp domestics services in the UK, also we wire in 'ring circuits' so each power circuit has 230v x 32A = 7.3kWs available with multiple outlets, so cross phase or under power is never an issue.
Wow! That is nice, thanks for sharing!
Very helpful video, that filled in some of the gaps in my knowledge about the electrical aspect of home theater. Have definitely run into ground loop hum on more than one occasion, and will keep all of this in mind down the road.
Glad it was helpful!
I appreciate the information. Important for Home Theater planning.
You bet!
Yes, very good advice.
Providing one is not experiencing any sort of grounding issues. In my experience the biggest culprits for heightened noise floor (background signal noise) sometimes referred to as ambient sound of the room has to be unshielded cables. Unshielded cables act as antennas for attracting RF and the longer the cable the better the antenna.
From someone who's changed his cables multiple times 😢
Great point!
Good stuff and a key consideration when building a theater. Though, I don't think you mentioned subwoofers which are often the most power hungry component of the theater.
Great point! You need to calculate that into your setup!
Great video, helpful!
Glad it was helpful!
Great advice. Thanks.
Glad it was helpful!
Very informative!
Glad it was helpful!
Great advice.
Thanks for watching!
This is a must especially if you're running multiple Amps!
For sure!! Thanks for watching
Great video what would be your advice or models for surge protectors that we need to use. Mostly in the case of Subwoofer and amplifiers where the amp requirements are higher than some of the standard surge protectors in wattbox
Thanks! We'd recommend you reach out to our team of home theater experts and they can walk through your system and help you decide which ones will be best for your budget and space!

Keep in mind that the total amp draw on a breaker should not exceed 80% of the breakers rated amperage: for a 20 amp breaker the max would be 16 amps or 1,920 watts.
Thank you for sharing!
Just keep in mind that amplifiers and receivers are not toaster ovens and do not draw constant power (even at clipping) They require dividing watts listed on the back by 8 to get an accurate representation of power draw. In other words, if the back of your receiver or power amplifier lists 1000watts of power draw on the back of the device, the amount of power drawn from the wall at full blast (edge of clipping) is only 125 watts!
Thanks for sharing!
Nice!
Thanks!
If you use mire than 7.5-10k watts in your home, you will need to go 3 phase and balance the load, otherwise the load from your house will draw-down the voltage to your neighbor’s houses.
