Hi,
We are working on a design build UPS project. We are installing a 45 KVA UPS system. The max current is 166 amps. However the recommended over current protective device is 200 amps. We only have spacing to hang a 45 KVA transformer in the room which will limit me to 175 amp OCPD.
I am looking for someone with a little more UPS back grounds advise on if this could cause any unforeseen issues down the road. In my vision we are not limiting the customer on the 45 KVA they purchased and that the UPS manufacturers recommended OCPD is over sized by one size.
