    If the compressor tries to start with more than about 7
    pounds pressure in the tank it will trip the 15 amp breaker.

    Teriann, are you sure the compressor's unloader valve is working right?
    This is all the classic symptoms of a stuck unloader valve - compressor's
    don't start well against back pressure.

    Reason I ask is that this jhust happened to mine - unloader valve stuck and
    made life annoying.
