I have a question on a existing installation that i believe maybe undersized to the main cb there now. The utility is suppling power from a 750kvatransformer, secondary is 480v The main cb has a trip unit rated for 1600amps ,the maximum for that frame size cb.
Should the trip unit be sized to the transformer? I believe is more like 900 amps . I am thinking if there is a overload condition 1600 amps is way above the transformer rating. Am i missing something ? thanks for any help.
