Hi guys. I am looking at running a 480v 14A Line to a Commercial Convection Oven. I don’t do too much work with this kind of stuff but figured I would help out our local school district. The have an existing oven there and are getting a new one. It’s currently powered by a Square D molded case 30A 3ph breaker. I really have 2 questions.
1 - the manufacturers spec sheet is VERY BRIEF and does not say anything about fusing the discount. I have always referred to manufacturers specs on fused vs. non fused disconnects. Can I be safe in saying, as long it doesn’t SPECIFICALLY say “fused” in the paperwork, does it need one????
2 - I am curious about the molded case breakers. I have been around panels where they are present but have never really understood them. The Panel board is an old 1600V Square D with most of the molded case breakers being pretty old. I am thinking of changing the current breaker to a new FAL34030 breaker. They also make an FA34030 breaker. Any idea what the difference is between these 2?? Any help would be appreciated.
Tha k you
