HAPPY BIRTHDAY KEEF.
The surge current is typically from capacitance induction motors and not all AC devices need that extra umph to start. My mini split is not on the 100A panel. It is tied directly to the main panel and 200A line.Alright one more ? About the step up just to finish them off and get the pestering from my mind. I can't seem to word it properly for a Google response...
Say this: I have a 110 circuit@ 15A. I'm putting 1100w into that circuit as a steady load. AC kicks on, surges@ 1500w and intermittently blows fuses. I would need to buy a step up rated at twice the wattage of what I need? So, I use 2600 at peak, I'd need one rated @ 5200w? Once that's on the line, it's only cutting ( we'll say lights and ac) in half , bringing their load to 800-1000w. That still leaves me all the room up to 1500w again?
