What if for some reason one LD11 picks up the X10 on and the other one
doesn't or it comes on a fraction of a seconds later.  Then one will be on
and the other off so 1400w would be pulled through just one.  BANG I
expect.

My problem is the circuit is already wired & I have know way of
changing it.

Thanks

Martin
