NEC 2005: Article 430.122(A) states that the feeders of a VFD are required to be sized at 125% of the rated input of the drive. If I don't plan on using the full rating, is there a way around this rule? Why can't I just fuse the input conductors to a smaller size (assuming the conductors can...
Does a 240V delta load from a transformer 480/240 3W transformer need to be grounded? I am looking for code references if possible (I can find wye references, but not for delta secondaries).
Thanks.
What are the effects of decreasing the terminal voltage on a DC motor (with brushes). I cannot find the manufacturer's data sheet on this specific motor. Is there a certain voltage the motor will no longer work at (assuming it is higher than the back EMF)? Can I say that for every volt it is...
