To reduce the amperage in a circuit from 15 amps to 12 amps while maintaining the same voltage (115V), you can reduce the load on the circuit. This can be achieved by using a smaller wattage device that consumes less power, thereby lowering the current draw. Specifically, replacing the 1725W device with one that consumes 1350W will result in a reduction of current to approximately 12 amps, as calculated using the formula ( I = \frac{P}{V} ). Additionally, ensure that the circuit wiring and components can safely handle the new load.
