Compressor cutting out ? Help please

[rtbcomp]

..........

if you have a cooker point with a socket in the kitchen you can take 16 amps through that if you're adventurous as the cable and mcb will be rated a lot higher

But the socket is still 13A and I hope you're not suggesting he bypasses the fuse in the plug. Disconnecting the cooker and wiring the compressor in its place is also a no-no for a non-electrician.

Oh no... just replace the nail that previous owner must have had in it.

Doesn't look like a 3HP motor. Try reducing the gearing by using a smaller drive pulley.

Well next time you know; just because it says 3hp on the tank, doesn't mean it will say 3hp on the motor!
