Unfortunately it is worse than double depending on the head pressure, state of maintenance, and original design the start up draw can be up to five times the running amps. This is a big issue in the world of bus conversions where the goal is to run one or more ac units off of the house battery bank once converted to lithium battery technology. Sometimes you can and some times you can’t.

Plus a/c systems take almost double the current at start up so your looking at upwards of 30amps then
