Re: How to fix a problem spike

If you have not replaced the fuse in the spike with a breaker you have simply blown the fuse in each spike. The compressor draws significant current when it starts. It is legal and recommended that you replace the fuse on the spike used for the compressor with a 20 amp breaker.
