I apologize, this isn't really a PLC question, but I am asking since this is probably the only place I know where I can get a reliable answer to a question like this. I have a single phase 115V motor which runs fine.... until I put a load onto it. It blows all my fuses, 20A, and 25A regardless. Obviously the inrush current drawn by the motor is WAY too high for any fuse I throw in. What is the best solution without overhauling my entire electrical. Should I use a soft starter? Where would I get one for single phase motors? Motor runs a hydraulic lift. Motor specs weren't anywhere on the product description when I initially purchased... or the manual.
Motor is rated at
