To figure out your current draw:
Amps = Watts (in Kw) X 1000/(voltage X 1.732 X Pf)
Thats a very low power factor, what are you running?

what could you possibly be operating has a 30% power factor

A bit off topic, as it has to do with house wiring. But how does power

affect dissipation in the conductors? I'm wondering, for example, if a
1500
watt capacity and a 30% power factor would overload #14 wire.
