I have a new hurco lathe has no electrical specs and tech at factory repeated name plate: Largest motor 25 kva 36 amp, fla 60kva 150amp. The owner says its 16000 rpm and 47Hp at spindle. My question is ,have the motors and total loads calculated at 150amp is there any other calculations necessary. There is a handle on a device that looks like a disconnect at the control panel and it accepts the line side three phase wires and its rated at 150 amps by partial label on device. also if 150 amps is full load the disconnect at gutter tap would preferably be a 200amp 3 phase disconnect with 150 amp fuses to give best current limiting over current protection. Is this machine calculated already and will never see the FLA? Wire size 1-0 at 60" and 150 amp fuses? Thanks any additional advice would be appreciated. I am currently on this thread 1-15 2013 @10 51pm tejas time GOD BLESS ,and thanks for your time
