Hi,
We used to have a old compressor. it never had any starter combination kit in it. we replaced with a new air compressor which got all the controls within the compressor. The starter kit for the old compressor was in the MCC cabinet. Our contractor disconnected the old air compressor and just fed the new air compressor. I know we cannot do that. Is there any danger by powering the feeder breaker from a contactor? Why NEC wont allow this?
Thank you,
Jagadeesh
