I relocated this transformer setup for a client that owns a pressure washer sales and service business. They use the plugs on these transformers to power various pressure washers that they service. They have been using this setup for years, and just recently some tech they hired is insisting that the 60amp 460v receptacle on the right should be fused down to 30amp as most of the units they test are max of 30amps. He even thinks that the fuses should be changed to match whatever unit they are testing at the time, however this would be a bad idea to expect employees to remember the steps needed to do so safely.
His concern is that if the unit pulls too many amps it would be damaged before the breaker feeding the transformer trips.
This seems highly unlikely to me and I believe the pressure washer would have there own fuses for such circumstances.
Anyone have any thoughts on this?
Thanks
