For sake of argument lets say this is on the 2023 NEC where wording states:
(D) Service Disconnecting Means.
A disconnecting means in accordance with Parts VI through VII of Article 230 shall be provided to disconnect all ungrounded conductors of a power production source from the conductors of other systems.
Looking at plans for a dwelling with 41 mods with microinverters @ 1.6 each. 41 x 1.6 A x 1.25 = 82 A
Plans show #4 thhn with 90 fuses in a 100 amp disconnect
230.42(B) calls for the minimum ampacity of the conductors to be not less than the rating of the service disconnecting means
310.12 says for services and feeders you can size the conductors based at 83%
So is a #4 feeding this disconnect correct?
What if I have 50 micros @ 1.6A? Now were at 100A fuses and #3 thhn conductors
Can you still feed the disconnect using #4s with the 83%?
