Default Cable Length (ft) |
The Auto Design feature automatically enters the default cable length if the cable length is not already specified. |
Sizing Lines Protected by SSTs |
Size based on tap/plug rating: Cables are sized based on upstream breaker rating, which is defined by the sensor tap or the rating plug of the solid state trip. Size based on adjusted LTPU: If the upstream solid state trip has an adjustable long time pickup (LTPU) setting, then sizing cable based on the LTPU amps can enable you to economize on cable size. |
