What is 15 amp dedicated ?Have 15 amp in breaker,but runs one line through all plugs in bdrm and 1 wall in lvng room,Is 15amp 14awg ext. cord safe?

A 15A dedicated circuit means that the heater needs a circuit for itself. It's OK to use if the other outlets aren't being used for anything else. #14 wire is good for 15 amps however you would not want to run a very long extension cord.

its a 15 amp circuit to one plug in . do not use a extention with major appliances

I have had my compressor on a 15A circuit for over a year and never tripped a breaker. Just keep in mind, that could change with what else you have running on that circuit. I don't think you will have any problems under normal usage.

It depends on the amperage of the fan/heater unit and how many other devices (lights or receptacles) are on that same fan circuit. If the fan is dedicated it shouldn't be an issue, especially if you have 12 gauge wiring (20amp circuit breaker). It's not likely that you'll exceed the load and trip the breaker, but if your bath outlets are on the same circuit, plus you decide to use a curling iron or blow dryer, along with heater fan and of course your lighting, you probably will overload the circuit. Also, I wouldn't install it if you only have 14 gauge wiring (15amp).

Less than 15 amps. I used it on a room with only 15 amp outlets and it worked fine. It only takes a few minutes to do a room. Be careful when you lower the best onto the wood. You can leave a depression unless you are very careful. Practice in a remote corner till you master it. Keep the machine moving as you lower the belt.

Not sure why someone would recommend a L14-30P plug for an L5-30P outlet? The line from the geni L5-30p is split into (3) 15 amp outlets. Not sure why someone said it is illegal... You need to use an L5-30p plug for the line. I have a Champion generator this would work on. It has the L5-30p outlet, it is used for home back-up and some people use it for RV generator power.

I had the same problem at the time determining the maximum current but I think most fans should be ok. I used it for a fairly large fan so I'm guessing most is good for most 15 amp circuits .

mine does fine on 15Amp breaker - there is a surge when you start first, but when it runs it runs - no problem

The service tag says Max 15 but operational is 9.6 if I recall. I have a 15 Amp breaker for it and it seems to work just fine.

Mine was a 120 VAC unit. Connected in a 15 amp circuit. No problems with electrical overload. It is the quietest and smoothest compressor in this size range I have ever owed. A joy to use.

We run this machine at 80 amps on a 15 amp breaker with no problems. Anything more than that is a very short duty cycle or upgrade to a 20 amp breaker.

it depends on what Amp breaker you outlets are hooked to ie 14 Gauge/ 15 Amps. 12 gauge/20 amps.

Total load must be less than 15 amps or the breaker will pop. That's because only ONE plug of the wall outlet is powering the entire 6-plug device.

It is 110v.....be sure to add together the amps of everything plugged in the circuit so you know if the breaker can handle the load. If too many things are plugged in the outlets on that particular circuit you will trip the breaker. If you have a 15 amp breaker you can't load the circuit with more than 15 amps. Hope this helps...

I'm not qualified to answer that question. I'm not a professional. I'm using it for lighting & a bath fan. I use a 15 amp breaker with 14g wire, not a 20. I always check manufactures recommendations. There may be local codes as well to consider when running a new circuit.

Yes. But you want to keep in mind that the longer the cord the more voltage drop you will have. A 14 gauge cord is good for 15 amps and should work fine with up to about a 100 ft cord. If you need a longer cord you can play it safe and up the cord size to 12 gauge this will take into consideration the length of the wiring in the house to get from the panel to the outlet you are using on the outside (GFCI Proctected)

From pervious answer: "It is 1500 the same as most of them. Ours just stopped working, we had it 3 years" not correct...Voltage is standard US household voltage of ~120V. Wattage is 1500. This is close to the maximum of must household outlet circuits. It will work fine in most cases, however, you cannot put two of these units on a single circuit. Two units will trip the breaker. One will not.From another previous answer: "Do not use this item with an extension cord or surge protector. It will melt the cord and short out the heater" This statement is true only if you use a small extension with inadequate wire guage. A good 12 ga. extension will work fine.

I have ordered the 30 amp cord.....It is my understanding that all the cords (15 and 20 amp) would work.....What determines which one you need is the amperage size breaker you are connecting to.......
