This calculation has always given me a fit. I tend to get it backwards.... Will one of you math gurus go over it for me.
240.21(C)(1) says in part:
(1) Protection by Primary Overcurrent Device. Conductors
supplied by the secondary side of a single-phase transformer
having a 2-wire (single-voltage) secondary, or a three-phase, delta-delta connected transformer having a 3-wire (single-voltage) secondary, shall be permitted to be protected by overcurrent protection provided on the primary (supply) side of the transformer, provided this protection is in accordance with 450.3 and does not exceed the value determined by multiplying the secondary conductor ampacity by the secondary-to-primary transformer voltage ratio.
In another post, the OP has primary 208v 3phase(1/0 cu thhn) stepping up to secondary 480v (#2 cu thhn) With 150 amp ocpd in primary
Are his secondary conductors considered to be protected using the ratio rule ?
