Question I have a air handler unit with 4# 10 hp motors all operate at the same time all go off at the same time there all mounted in one enclosure and function as one .
each has a freq drive and each drive has fuse protection factory installed inside them . Now I have one feeder that supplies power to this AHU unit the taps to each freq drive will be the same size as feeder. If I used smaller taps off the feeder do I need fused disconnects . NEC article 430.102 exc. 2# says one disconnect for a group of controllers that drive one machine . Is this one machine in my case is a AHU unit a machine ?
