Hi,
I have recently been given a compressor from my place of employment and after servicing it i started to use it. It all works fine except on about five occasions it has blown the plug fuse (13A) The compressor is single phase but i think the motor takes about 15 Amps which i think is blowing the fuse. Is there/can you safely use a higher rated fuse or will i have to wire the compressor through a heavy duty fuse box.
Please help
Regards Nigel
