If you're working in a one-, two-, or multi-family dwelling unit, is Article 310.15(B)(7) applicable? National Electrical Code 2014 ARTICLE 310 Conductors for General Wiringģ10.15 Ampacities for Conductors Rated 0–2000 Volts. This will give us the current carrying conductor size required for our feeder. Once we know the size of the overcurrent devices, and the lowest temperature rating, we can use Table 310.15(B)(16) to determine the conductor size and material we'll need. We'll then use the lowest value, or 60☌ if any of the above are not labeled. The terminals in the sub panel where the conductors will connect.The terminals in the main panel where the conductors will connect.We have to consider the temperature rating of. Since the cable will run from a breaker in the main service panel, to either a breaker or lugs in a subpanel. (4) For motors marked with design letters B, C, or D, conductors having an insulation rating of 75☌ (167☏) or higher shall be permitted to be used, provided the ampacity of such conductors does not exceed the 75☌ (167☏) ampacity. (3) Conductors with higher temperature ratings if the equipment is listed and identified for use with such conductors. (2) Conductors with higher temperature ratings, provided the ampacity of such conductors is determined based on the 60☌ (140☏) ampacity of the conductor size used. (a) Termination provisions of equipment for circuits rated 100 amperes or less, or marked for 14 AWG through 1 AWG conductors, shall be used only for one of the following: Unless the equipment is listed and marked otherwise, conductor ampacities used in determining equipment termination provisions shall be based on Table 310.15(B)(16) (formerly 310.16) as appropriately modified by 310.15(B)(6). The determination of termination provisions of equipment shall be based on 110.14(C)(1)(a) or (C)(1)(b). National Electrical Code 2014 ARTICLE 110 Requirements for Electrical Installationsġ10.14(C)(1) Equipment Provisions. We should use the 60☌ column of Table 310.15(B)(16) to determine the conductor size, unless the equipment is listed and labeled for a higher temperature. 110.14(C)(1)(a) tells us, that since we're working with 100 amperes or less. While the cable/wire may be rated at 90☌, you'll likely find that the terminals are rated at 75☌, or not labeled at all.
