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.


What gauge extension cord used if any?

Switching the circuit breaker at the box to a 20 amp, requires a wire
change to 12 gauge.

Where is the breaker box, if in the basement run a new 20 amp circuit
same cost as changing the wire and breaker.
