Car Lift overloads required?

I was going to say never also. There are millions of these and every time it comes up its almost like it was invented yesterday.

This application doesn't even require motor overload protection. Every one I ever seen was a intermittent duty rated motor. By nature of the operation they are an intermittent load anyway they all have a momentary contact button and you must hold to run the motor. They don't run long enough cycle to even trip normal motor overload protectors. If motor stalls or fails to start for some reason you are right there to let up on switch and if you don't it will trip your short circuit/ground fault protection within a few seconds anyway.

If its for a customer,,, or yourself a nice touch or even uopsell is a 30A welder circuit (6-50-R) to it for smaller wire feeds. They use the same wire and breaker.
