Voltage and Circuit Protection
Refer to the Parts Manual for the voltage and minimum branch circuit requirements.
Certain air compressors can be operated on a 15 amp circuit if the following conditions are met.
1.Voltage supply through branch circuit is 15 amps.
2.Circuit is not used to supply any other electrical needs (lights, appliances, etc.).
3.Extension cords comply with specifications.
4.Circuit is equipped with a 15 amp circuit breaker or 15 amp time delay fuse. NOTE: If compressor is connected to a circuit protected by fuses, use only time delay fuses marked “D” for Canada and "T" for US.
If any of the above conditions cannot be met, or if operation of the compressor repeatedly causes interruption of the power, it may be necessary to operate it from a 20 amp circuit. It is not necessary to change the cord set.
