Re: new 1.1 compressor blowing 20A fuses

The Weidmuller PCM/VRM Connectors are protected by a single 20 amp fuse (shared between the two). So, the combined current of the PCM/VRM cannot exceed 20 amps (I'm guessing that the peak current draw of the VRM is about 4 amps). If you want 20 amps for the PCM alone, then you need to use a WAGO connector with its own 20 amp breaker.
