Just had an inspector tag a garage I wired that included a circuit for a compressor motor. The motor nameplate amps are 24 with no hp shown on the nameplate. I installed a 60 amp breaker in the sub with # 10 wire and he tagged it as" # 10 wire on 60 amp breaker". No code reference of course. Says " must be no more than 30 amp breaker for # 10 wire".. I guess i must show him my calcs eh and also how to read the code book?
