A feeder calculation is limited to 133 amperes and includes 88 amperes of noncontinuous load. What continuous load can use the remaining allowance at 125 percent?
- A32 amperes
- 36 amperes
- C45 amperes
- D56 amperes
Why B is correct
The calculated remainder is 133 − 88 = 45 amperes. Dividing by 1.25 converts the calculated allowance to 36 amperes of continuous load.
