I have 10 cabs, but only 3 outlets in this room. I am running 2 arcade cabs (for example Tekken 3 and Final FIght) into 1 electrical outlet. So, I have 4 cabs plugged into a standard 2 outlet on the wall. Am I in any danger of a fire hazard? And what is the max Arcade cabs I can plug in 1 outlet without being in fire hazard territory?
