3520b circuit requirement

[Cliff Holmes]

I'll need to put in a new circuit for my wife's new toy, but I can't find any information on the amp load for the the 3520b (the box won't be opened until Christmas). I downloaded the manual from PM but even that doesn't say.

With a 2hp motor, I'm assuming that a 20A circuit will be OK but can someone verify this?

[Kurt Rosenzweig]

Yes a 20A is fine. Thats what I'm using along with 12/2 wire. My run is only about 50'

[Chris Stolicky]

On the Jet 2 HP it is roughly ~16 amps. I believe its the same motor (or very similar). It sounds like you will be fine.

I ran 12/2 with a 20A 2 pole breaker. I think it draws around 12-15 amps.
