No. He wants to power a 16A mill. His problem is high inrush on startup of a DC supply. Soft-start is a reasonable way to solve it. He should use a 20A breaker, though. 15A receptacles are ok on 20A circuits (though I'd use 20A receptacles and plugs here). The 2kW is probably peak load. -- John Hasler jhas...@newsguy.com Elmwood, WI USA
