What is the Mim. size THW, feeder we ca install on the following overcurrent device.
1-350 ampere 500kcm/350kcm
2-300 ampere 350kcm/250kcm
3-125 ampere #1/#2
4-400 ampere600kcm/500kcm
5-500 ampere 900kcm/700kcm
2-wires per phase 250kcm/ 4/0
6- 90 ampere #3/#4
The first Answ. our mine and that Sec. numbers are test key Answ.
First thing I messed up, was forgot about 310.4 when Con. got smaller than 1/0.
Thought this will be a piece of cake to get right.
The round up rule can fool you I found out.
110.14(C)(1) for some reason has a way to get me confused. Then we put in 240.4(B).
Where does the round up start? I see how the correct Answ. work after looking closer at 310.16.
Because we aren't given a load, there asking what the code allows for Min. size. So you assume
that the load your working with is higher tha the next lower size rating. Is that correct?
110.14(C)(1) makes my mind spin. I get confussed (some what), on the 100 Amp. or below load's and
the Temp. rating's and that stuff. Everybody say's THAT'S THE WAY WE DID IT FOR YEAR'S. Well,
that doesn't make it right. Am I alone on 110.14(C)(1)
