Hello I encountered a problem at our facility, the failure of a cooling tower recirculation motor
tripped the MCC bucket (400a) that fed the panel, which held the breaker (50a) that fed the
VFD to the motor. I found both trip curves on line and compared to each other and found
they cross. So i moved the 400a breaker up from instantaneously to 100ms, which on paper
would seem to fix the problem. My question is : does that mean I
have to now take 240.87 into consideration? Thanks scott
