Hello everyone,
I hope your day is going well. I have a question. I am working on a project and its T & M and no plans. We are about to install a 75 hp 480 V 102amp full running load, compressor. We have the ampicity in panel to run it but my Question is 2.5 times 102 is 255amps. Now what kind or type of breaker do I use? Since the start up is momentary do I still need a big size breaker OR would something like a 150 amp hold up for the start up?
