You will need a 30 amp circuit if using 120 VAC, and you won't be able to run a lot more on the same circuit.

You can look at the breaker box, but typically Garages, and Kitchens have 30 amp service while the rest are 15 amp.

ok i see. so if one planned to set up around 3000w in say a bedroom on 15amp. then the room would have to be changed over to a diff breaker of 30amp?
