Amps....
Yes, the motor plate says that it is a max 36.6 amps. So I assume that the motor is pulling full amperage at start up. But there in lies the problem! I have 10-3 wire to the garage and I should have 6 or 8 running to it. Is the cost worth running the wire to this ole compressor (and when I say old the motor was here when Columbus arrived and the Indians before that made the air compressor) worth the money or better with a newer setup that would run on the 220 and operate in the 22-25 amp range??.
