Once upon a time I created a 20A circuit that had multiple outlets and at the end of the string I plugged in a refrigerator. Since that time I added a small chest freezer. After that came a larger chest freezer. If two motors start at roughly the same time I’m ok, but on the odd occurrence when three start at roughly the same time the breaker blows as you would expect.
Can someone point me to a device that can be installed at the outlet which can prevent a motor from starting if it detects that the current available is below a prescribed level?
