Hello,
I have a dedicated outlet for a 220V window air conditioner that is connected to the main panel with 12-gauge wire and a 20-amp fuse. The label on the air conditioner says "Cooling Amps 15.0/16/5," which would lead me to believe that the wire is sufficient for the load. But, the label also says "use time delay fuse or circuit breaker 30 amp." If a
30-amp fuse is required, does this mean that I need to replace the wire with 10-gauge?Here's the entire label from the unit: Frigidare Gallery air conditoner Model # FAS295J2A4 Serial # JK22068612 Volts 230/208 Cooling Amps 15.0/16.5 Cooling Watts 3365 3300 Cooling EER DOE 8.5/8.5 BTU 28,500 use time delay fuse or circuit breaker 30 amp
Thanks for your help! Will
