True. If I had been able to add the pic I might have seen the answer myself before posting. After looking many times, The Max fuse was on there all the way at the bottom in with the optional heater ratings. Since it has no heat, I didn't get that far. At the very bottom "Heat : None / Min ckt ampacity 23.7 / Max fuse 30A

So that is all that you need, as Augie hinted at in post #7 the other numbers are irrelevant. You need a 25 amp conductor and a 25 or 30 amp OCPD, in this case a fuse.

Technicalities- he needs a 23.7 amp conductor. Tables in 310 only list ampacities in increments of 5 - but he needs at least 23.7 after any applicable adjustment factors are applied.

I was speaking practically since there has been no mention of adjustment factors.

yeah I figured that, but is a detail that could be important.

Agreed if as you've mentioned you were doing an ampacity adjustment.
