Most homes don't have any 15A+ plugs in their home, except their dryer if it's electricity. Most circuits in homes are 20A breakers. You sure you did the calculations right? Heaters that people use in their homes are typically 1000watts or so tops, and you're claiming your computer does twice the wattage?
Current total power draw is what I said - means all rigs put together
They do run off the same breaker though, not a problem over here.
Some kitchen appliances (e.g. electric kettle) can draw more than 2000W short-term. Our electic lines in general are way better than yours
