This is probably a question I should direct to UL, but would like to get your opinions. Can you think of any reason why UL would require a dedicated 20 amp. circuit on a ceiling heater fan that has a maximun current draw of 10.7 amps?
The manufacturer claims it was a requirement set by UL for listing. I don't think the manufacturer was giving me the whole story. This unit was shown by one of their distributers as requiring a 15 amp circuit, which makes sense to me as 10.7 amps falls within 80% of a 15 amp circuit.
