I am running RGS conduit up to the roof of a metal building and across to an HVAC system. I am running 3#4 with gnd (Thwn) from a 70A breaker. My load for the HVAC is (63.1A) with recommended MCB at 70A from the manufacture. It looks like I need to derate the cable based on table 310.15(B)(3)(c). I have a very short run across the roof to the HVAC unit. I see min distance requirements in the article. Am I missing something ? It looks like I will need to change to 3#2 base on detrating. The building will be located in Corpus Christi Texas. Design temp would be about 98 degrees.
Thanks in advance for the help!
