I actually got a chance to put a meter on the motor that I hooked up.In my original post I was asking about thermal protection and sizing. Nameplate is 13.1A, motor is running at 10.8. I will assume that the load will probably not change since this is a air compressor motor and no additional burden should be added.After reading many of the posts, I guess I will just go by the nameplate since that is what NEC requires.
