This is getting confusing
I thought overload heaters within a motor starter were to be specifically sized according the the motor FULL LOAD CURRENT listed on its label x either 125%, 115% or max 140% whether motor has a temp rise of 40 degrees c or service factor rating BUT NOT
125% of motor full load current looked up on NEC chart for single or polyphase motors?
I will attempt to paste a YouTube video of a vocational instructor using NEC BOOK FLC full load current to calculate overload protection. Is he not wrong?
