Hi Everyone,
Concerning baseboard heater circuits, I wondered if there is anything in the code that prohibits feeding more than one heater off of a OCPD. Other than the 80 percent derating of circuit ampacity for continuous loads I see no reason why this cannot be done. I'm referring to basic baseboard heaters with line voltage thermostats, 240V supply for residential heating application.
This is my first time posting here, but I've read quite a bit of the forums in the past. Thanks for all the great info!
