Compressors are a strange beast, since they may start at anytime the pressure

I run mine on a 120v non-dedicated circuit that, being in a garage
"shop" on residential property, is required by local code to be GFCI
protected, but I've never had any trouble with the setup at all.
IIRC if you use a NEMA L5-20P on that circuit, the GFCI isn't required. That
was the approach I took (since I'm also in the garage).
