I’m trying to figure out how big a three phase panel I need for the following:
3 x 2 pole 60 amp breaker powering A/C air handler, MCA 59 amps
3 x 2 pole 50 amp breaker powering A/C condenser, MCA 31 amps
The breakers will be as evenly distributed across the phases as possible.
I know how to do this for a split-phase panel, but three-phase confuses me. Please show me the calculation.
