Two Fein T3 Power Requirements

[bill_lumley]

I am connecting two Turbo III's to my vacuum setup and was wondering what size circuit I need . I have in a simple test operated them together on one 15A circuit but the label states they draw 10A . I am wondering if that 10A includes a device used to turn on the T3 via the control socket . I would like to use the T3 control socket to turn both Vac's on simultaneously on the same circuit . Will this work long term on a single 15A circuit or should I go to two 15A circuits or a single 20A 115V circuit ?

Thanks Bill

I run mine on a single 20A circuit and would recommend that route. (I made the mistake once of plugging a 3rd unit into the same cicuit to use as a shop vac - two is definitely the limit)

I run my 2 turbo 3's off a single 15 amp fuse with no problem. It probably would be better to go to 20 amp though.
Also the way mine are set up i have one vac plugged into the other and the first one running to outlet so when i turn one on they both start.

Thanks Guys . Yes Jack that is how I plan to run mine . One triggering the other. I will use the single 15A circuit as you are for a while but will upgrade to 20A ASAP .
