So, I have a 225A breaker. Connected to the bottom of this breaker, I have a cable going to a transformer rated for 100KVA and another cable going to a 30A breaker. According to Table 310.15(B)(17) in the NEC, the conductors of these two cables must be 1/0 AWG (assuming 90deg, THHN, single-insulated conductors). Is it ever okay, under any circumstance or using a different code that can be considered to become UL approved, to use a smaller conductor than 1/0 AWG going into the 30A breaker? If so, can the conductors of this cable be allowed to be sized as small as 14 AWG?
