Is it really common to see the ampacity of the wire on refrigeration compressors not match the OCPD on the compressor branch circuit. I just can't get used to sizing the wire at 125% of the RLA, and then being able to size the OCPD up to 225%.
Do I have to raise the wire ampacity to match the final OCPD, or allowed to match a minimum 125% RLA with the 225% RLA OCPD?
