I have a 20 amp circuit that only has two suction units on it. They are Quatro ivac twins. My booklet says they are 7 amp. Ive had no issues for years, but now the breaker is blowing when they both run. Ive felt the breaker and its just a bit warm.
Even if my filters are plugged, 7 amps should be the max, right? Im going to replace all the filters today. Could it be drawing more amps if one of the motots is getting ready to fail? Im prepared, so I have replacement motors waiting.
Could it just be a bad breaker?
