Only for the air compressors, any other use is against the rules.

The fuse in the Spike that controls the compressor is the only fuse that may be changed to a 20 amp breaker. The fuse is there to protect the Spike contacts from damage. However, the start current on the compressor is higher than 20 amps for a few milliseconds. That is why this Spike only may have the fuse replaced with a breaker.
