There's a question I've gotten varying answers on, I'm a little new to this sort of thing so I was wondering if anyone could ease my anxiety on it.
There's three air conditioners wired in parallel to each other protected by three 100A fuses.
We were supposed to replace the fuses with a breaker and leave the wiring in place, so I took (compressor load+fans)*3*1.75 per nec 440.22 which results in 111 amps. So I sized the breaker at 100 amps. Is that the right approach?
