I am very confused. I am trying to size my breaker that feeds a 30 hp 460 volt 34 fla generator. I am having trouble with 445.12(A) and 445.13. Let's assume first that the generator doesn't have a means to prevent overloading. Then I size my conductors at not less than 115% of fla. Then size the breaker to protect the conductors. Is this correct? Now let's assume it has a means to prevent overloading. I then size the conductors at not less than 100% fla, then size the breaker to protect the conductors. Is this correct?
