Conductor Size

[mstrlucky74]

Switch/fuse size not given for the feed to PP5-2. That would be needed in order to size conductors, correct?

The second graphic says existing, is the feeder changing in size?

We have to cut back and extend as existing panel(PP5) being relocated.

It is a 200A MLO, so 200A worth of feeder unless of course the fuse is smaller and you can use smaller ampacity wire.

Thanks Ron. If you have a OCPD( in a panel or gear) feeding another panel the conductors should be sized off the rating of the OCPD feeding the panel/gear, correct?

Yes, unless there is some type of future growth planned.
