Chris B Can I start the electric version using house power from a 5KW Northern Lights (Lugger) genset? It should be fine to run once started, but it's the starting amps I'm worried about.
I've got 30A service onboard but max 20A circuits. I could install a 30A circuit but have never pushed it past 20A - this would be the first time that need has arisen in over 10 years.
So I guess the quantitative question is, "What's the starting draw in amps?", and the qualitative question is, "Are most people just getting the gas version, and if the electric version, with what are they starting it offshore?"
Thanks in advance.
DANIEL H The only thing I can tell you is mine would not run on a 20 amp circuit. As soon as I used a 30 amp fuse it worked fine. I would put in the 30 amp line.
