I see many references in the NEC about full load current and nameplate FLA. Do they refer to the same thing?
 
Re: FLA vs. FLC

Today, they are virtually the same. The original distinction has become muddied over the years.

Used properly, full-load amperes was a reference to a component's rating and full-load current was a reference to a load's "draw." Now you have to determine the usage of either term "in context."
