The problem is not the breaker but what you have pluged into it. If the compressor pulls 12amps than this is too muck for the ckt. A 15 amp ckt is only good to 80%, so 80% of 15 is 12. That means your at the max for 15amp. Plug it into a 20amp ckt and you won't have a problem, but DO NOT change the breaker to a 20 unless the insurance is paid up and you want a new camper.
