Can a 15 amp recepticle for an a/c run on a 30 amp breaker?
My new window unit air conditoner ran on a 30 amp recepticle on 10 gague wire to a 30 amp breaker. My new air conditioner that I bought to replace it requires a 15 amp recepticle. Can I just change the recepticle or should I also change the wire and the breaker?
1) The 30 amp circuit for your old air conditioner was a 240 volt. Your new air conditioner 15 amp circuit needs to be 120 volt.
2) You will need to change the breaker in addition to replacing the receptacle. Since you also need to go from 240 volt to 120 volt, the 30 amp breaker will be a double, while the new breaker will be a single pole. The white wire currently connected to the double breaker will need to be connected to the neutral bar.
3) The wire will be fine (assuming it is in good condition, copper, and there is a ground wire present). You can always use a larger wire than required without any problem.
Honestly, this is one of those questions that if you have to ask you really need to have a professional do it for you. It is a bit more complicated than just changing the receptacle. If the existing wire is usable, it should not be too expensive -- you are probably looking at paying the minimum charge.
