Delay 51 if you’re feeling lucky....62: may as well use a fuse. Delay curves 
are available on line. You want 59 or 69.....they trip at 125% rated current in 
.12 seconds or less. Your best, the 51 can hold that current for up to 6 
seconds. Worse, it can hold 50A for up to 1.2 seconds. That spells “S M O K E”. 
I’ve always chosen to run a 15A breaker....It is a fast-delay....59 or 69. I 
have never tripped it.....but I run my rigs conservatively.
