A few years ago, whenever we plugged in the vacuum in 2 different plugs in the living room/dining room, the breaker would blow and shut down a couple of our tanks. That's why I suggest knowing which plugs are connected to your tanks. Rather than blow a breaker when plugging in a high-wattage piece of equipment, you can avoid the unnecessary stress.
Also, ideally, if you have two pumps or wavemakers, have them on separate breakers so if something happens, the tank will still have circulation. It's not absolutely necessary but it is a good precaution.
