I have a 3 HP Phase-a-matic that i am using to run my tools. I have used it to run my 5 HP Cincy Drill Press with no issues.
I am now going to use it to power a 5 HP air compressor. My question is, is the 3 HP RPC only supplying enough to make the 5 HP motor acutally run @ 3 HP?
I have not noticed any problems with the 5 HP drill press when it's running. Seems like plenty of power although i have never had it hooked to a 5 HP source to compare it to.
Note: i only use one machine at a time, so the RPC doesn't get stressed.
Thanks
