NFPA 70E label question. General question when you have "main tie main", with the ties noramlly opened and lock, do you have to label the breakers with the worse case condition or the normal operating condition?
My conservative side says use the worse case condition but that adds a great deal of fault current and additional PPE that will in all likelhood never be needed. Is it permissible to use the "normal operating" configuration to calculate the Arc Flash and handle tie breakers on a case by case basis?
