I’ve always been under the impression that a BC-610 required a minimum of a 30A 120V circuit.
At full power according to the manual, on 120V (original spec is 115V) comes to 16 2/3 A, just a tad past the 80% circuit loading “rule.”
Sure, 30A would be vastly preferable, but I’m curious to hear of anyone’s successes running one on a 20A circuit/ 12GA wire.
Something might rapidly move up in restoration priority! Or, it’s just a really bad idea?
Thanks and 73,
