Default Power

Well I tried to use my power supply with no joy. Its a 25amp power supply and as soon as I start the starter box the power supply shuts down, probally due to an overload condition. So that makes me wonder, what is the startup current on these things. My Multi-meter only measures upto 20amps and I expect more then that, does anyone have a meter to measure startup current on there starter box. I'm interested to see how many amps of a power supply I would need to make this work.
