Circuit Requirements For Advent # ACDOM150 Air Conditioner
Question:
Dometic 459516.701c0 ac circuit requirements.
asked by: Glenn N
Expert Reply:
The Advent # ACDOM150, with 15,000 BTU of cooling power, draws 1750 watts. A 15-amp curcuit can handle up to 1800 watts. That seems to be cutting it close. I would want to use at least 12-gauge wire and a 20 amp breaker. This model also includes a start capacitor that will tame the electrical surge when the air conditioner is turned on. Great feature!
If your RV is only wired for 30 amp service, you may want to consider the Advent # ACDOM135 that only draws 1450 watts, leaving capacity for other appliances.
