It looks like it would be about 50 feet of wiring from the box to where I want to put the air compressor. If I put it on the wall closest to the utility room, it would be about 22 feet of wiring.
The manual says:
Quote:
Use a dedicated circuit.
For best performance and reliable starting the air compressor must be plugged into a dedicated circuit, as close as possible to the fuse box or circuit breaker.
The compressor will use the full capacity of a typical 15 amp household circuit. If any other electrical devices are drawing from the compressor circuit, the compressor may fail to start. Low voltage or an overloaded circuit can result in sluggish starting that causes the motor to overload protection systems or circuit breakers to trip, especially in cold conditions.
Note: To hand the initial electrical load of starting the air compressor, a circuit breaker is recommended. If the circuit breaker is connected to a circuit protected by a fuse, us dual element time delay fuses (Buss Fusetron type "T" only).
