Re: Air Compressors - mainsplain

First two things I wired into my shop after setting the sub panel were a 20 amp duplex outlet and my 220V, 60 gallon compressor. I must admit though, I got the compressor for free when my company moved warehouses and they didn't need it any longer. I asked if they wanted to sell it and the office manager said if I could make it disappear that day I could have it.

220V motors run lower amperage than 110 at the same horsepower but some folks just aren't set up for it.
