[QUOTE="Perplexed, post: 1541033, member: 7157"] Thanks for the responses, folks. To answer a few questions: the cutter pulls 40 amps only at 240V and at full load. On 120V and at a medium setting, it's pulling perhaps 20 amps. Because the breaker keeps tripping, I'm guessing the cutter is pulling at least that much. And I live in an unincorporated area of Tulsa County, so no permits needed. At least that I know of! :D And finally, I posted my questions to see if the responses would run along the lines of "Oh, it's an easy fix, here's what you do..." or if they would be more like "Yep, you need an electrician." Looks like the latter wins out. Thanks again, folks! [/QUOTE]
