Default softening the startup load on my table saw?

Yes, that's the plan. It will still be expensive though. These guys here are insane, and people put up with it.


You shouldn't have a saw and heater on the same line, anyway. It's no

wonder you're blowing breakers.

Agreed. No choice at the moment. Only one line.

Try putting an extension cord in series with the machine. There will be
enough current limiting with a light duty cord.
