I had a call about a disposer connected to a general lighting circuit, 15 amp, about the lights on that circuit dimming at the start of the disposer. The disposer is rated 6.9 amps. The panel is about 100' away. There is a MWBC in the kitchen, dishwasher and lighting. According to Article 210.23(a)(2) the disposer can be on the lighting circuit, look here. The HO is questioning the installation. I don't see anything wrong with this install as for the dimming I would think the initial start is the cause. What else could be the cause?
