Has anyone else had as much trouble as I am having with selective coordination? The Time Current curves that have been supplied for the hospital job I am inspecting are difficult to read. In some instances the fault is cleared in 0.1 seconds and other in 0.01 seconds. Article 517.17(C) states "A six-cycle minimum separation between the service and feeder ground-fault tripping bands shall be provided." Can that be accomplished in 0.1 seconds? How does one go about determining this? I am about to just ask for a stamped statement from the engineer that the system is coordinated and let the liability hang on his license, any comments would be welcomed.
