Will it trip a breaker on a dedicated 15A circuit?

that's hard to say some breaker trip easier then others even when they are the same size it should if it not real cold.

I have had my compressor on a 15A circuit for over a year and never tripped a breaker. Just keep in mind, that could change with what else you have running on that circuit. I don't think you will have any problems under normal usage.

Bryan, I have used the Rolair for approx. 4 months without a problem. A dedicated 15A circuit should be fine.

I doubt it will trip the breaker.... but it doesn't like extension cords. so if there is a long run of 14-2 from the breaker it may not run properly. Also depends on the temperature.

just off/on switch ( like light switch ) on drill press, 15amp should be good enough

The wire gage should be heavier for 15 amps! You can probably get by with the 10 amps and it's not going to hurt anything. If the fuse isn't enough it will simply blow which will not hurt anything............

Not that I know of. If you haven't already, you may want to check your home circuit breaker/fuse box and ground-fault circuit interrupter (if any) to see if anything has been tripped.

I ran dedicated a 12awg cable and install 30amp breaker. When i tied it to the 14awg 20amp circuit it would trip when i have a microwave turn on.

I don't think so. I think if you're on a 15 amp circuit, this switch will do the job. I'm using it on a 10" Delta table saw.

Your only using 10 of the listed 20 amps, and you would trip the breaker, before the outlet would have any problems. So you good to go.

Check the capacity of the circuit you have it plugged into. This needs to be on a 20A circuit as it will draw up to 17A, depending on your power supply. That is, BY ITSELF on a 20A circuit.The MINIMUM current draw will be 15A and that is already too much for a 15A circuit, you will likely blow the circuit. If it doesn't blow the circuit as soon as you plug it into a 15A circuit (and turn it on), there is something wrong with your wiring.

Sorry its not designed to do that. If your amp is tripping your breaker a lot then it should be on a breaker its self. I would first check to see what service your breaker box is on....60amp, 100amp or 200amp. Most power company prefer 200amp service and in most cases will upgrade your feed line at no charge, as long as you or a certified electrician installs a 200 amp breaker box and service to the outside. But make sure its to code or they will not do it. also see what all that breaker shuts off. It may not be your amp at all it maybe a combination of items that is drawing to much amperage. Also try replacing the outlet your using with a serge outlet so it trips the outlet first and not the breaker. Sorry its not designed to do that.

Yes, you really should. It might not always run 30 amps continuously when it's on, but if you have anything else on it, you really risk tripping the breaker. (Obviously, 20A or lower breakers would not do at all.)

Not that I am aware of. The tester will output what ever voltage it is connected to max of 24v. I believe the built in circuit breaker is 15 amps.

No, mine is running great on a regular 110 circuit. I'm not sure what the breaker amperage is for that particular circuit, but I've never had trouble tripping circuits while running this dust collector.

To be honest I am not sure, but I would say no to its own breaker (mine isn't and work fine).

We run this machine at 80 amps on a 15 amp breaker with no problems. Anything more than that is a very short duty cycle or upgrade to a 20 amp breaker.

No. You will damage the unit. This is a switching power supply designed for a 12v output only.

The switch is rated at 10 Amps (125 VAC) or 6 Amp (250 VAC). I wired mine on a 20 A circuit (125 VAC) , but I'm only powering a couple of xenon lamps through the switch. As long as you don't overload it, you'll be ok, but bear in mind that if you exceed the amperage on the load side of the switch, a 15 Amp breaker would not protect you.

Less than 20 amps - I run it on a 20 circuit. Has never tripped the breaker
