Check the MFG for the amps it uses, if it is suppose to be on a regular 20amp line,
then replace the breaker with a 20amp breaker. With the 30amp breaker,it will work,
but if there is a surge, you could send too much power to the appliance and fry it.
Most refrigerators, are just on a regular 120v household outlet. Besides a 30amp
breaker must have 10ga wire, if the wire is 12ga,it can not be attached to a 30amp breaker.
