60 amp breaker

Although the main circuit breaker is rated for 60 Amps, we suspect that we can run our robot at a higher current draw without popping the breaker.

Does anyone have practical experience with exactly how much? 80 amps? 100 amps?

How many total sustained amps do you think we can safely run our robot at?

Since we have a bunch of really powerful motors this year, it seems to me that we really have to watch what we ask of that breaker.

Any help would be appreciated!
