Power requirements

80mm1.5 kw spindle trips 20A breaker immediately in auto and manual mode even when nothing else is plugged in. However I can run my table saw AND a shop vac on this circuit no problem. Any ideas?

GFCI Circuit

Yep, just switched to different non gfci outlet and it works fine. Downside is that I now need to run my spindle on a 50 ft. 12 ga extension cord going across the garage and into my kitchen.

I have / used a ceiling mounted extension cord where the garage door opener plugged in when i had a 110

Unfortunately, all my outlets in the garage including door opener are on the same circuit. No real options to upgrade power. Oh well, it is what it is now.
