    credit card reader in WSII very hard to use

    upgrade 20 amp breaker to 25 on 12 gauge wire

    I replaced the 20 amp breaker with a 20 amp QO-HID breaker and it solved the problem, it is designed not to trip with the initial rush of energy to start the metal halide lamps.

    upgrade 20 amp breaker to 25 on 12 gauge wire

    so if the nec says that a 12 gauge wire can handle 25 amps and my circuit uses 19 amps can't I just replace that 20 amp breaker with a 25 and as long as I don't add anymore too it and it will be ok? With the 20% rule 19 amps is border line but still fine.
