When sizing service entrance conductors, do you size the SE conductors for the OCPD or the equipment it is mounted in?
Example: I have a 900Amp 3-phase 208V system, the OCPD is rated 900Amps, but the panel it is in 1200Amps. Are the SE conductors sized 900 for the OCPD or 1200A for the panelboard? Article 230.42(B) states "not less than the rating of the service disconnecting means..."
Thanks for the help.
