It is recommended (and allowed by rule R59-F) to replace the fuse in the Spike relay powering the compressor with a 20-Amp Snap Action breaker like the ones used for the PD board.
The compressor can draw significantly more than 20 amps when starting up which would cause a fuse to blow. The breakers are designed to handle significantly more than the rated capacity for short durations so they will not trip on compressor startup.

Yep, we did that. It was one of the first things our mentor told us we had to do when we were putting things together.
But, thanks again! The thought counts greatly.
