It just depends on what else is on the circuit. If there is nothing or little else, you should be fine. (Or if you don't run any high power things during flower time, etc.) If you start noticing brown outs in your home or your wires start to get hot, it's time for a new circuit.

You can actually calculate your total power needs per circuit.
