I have one 15-amp circuit serving my basement shop. Can I switch the breaker to 20 amps? TS is tripping when ripping 6/4 maple.

From a long term prospective, you may wish to consider running a couple
of new 20 amp circuits in your basement shop. With a saw motor the
circuit usually goes with the initial high amp load when the motor
starts. But as said if you are running a dust collection system and
some other high load equipment, you may be safer with the higher amp
circuits.

My work shop (part of my garage) has only one 20 amp circuit. That is
the circuit the runs the garage door openner. It is a pain to have to
plug my saw into that outlet that is in the ceiling. I hope to add a
couple other 20 amp circuits in other areas ie. where I keep my work
bench and one to the freezer which is also in the garage.
