I hooked up a large Printer pulling 52a, ran #6 thhn wire to feed this and put it on a 70a breaker as a 60a is only rated for 48a. The maintenance facilities representative is arguing this should be #4 wire. The 75c column allows 65a for #6 but next OC device available is a 70a breaker. I thought there was an allowance for next size up on equipment with motors but can't seem to find it. Am I wrong here?
