Why
Logarithmic?
Because large
values of
current can be
accommodated
and
compressed
into a small
area of the plot
I2t can be
plotted as a

Motor FLA
The motor FLA is the rated continuous current
carrying capacity of a motor at a referenced
ambient temperature and allowable
temperature rise,
Generator FLA
The FLA is the rated continuous current
carrying capacity of a generator at a referenced
ambient temperature and allowable
temperature rise
Ampacity
The ampacity is the rated continuous current
carrying capacity of the equipment at a
referenced ambient temperature.

NEC 240.4 Protection of Conductors
conductors shall be protected against
overcurrent in accordance with their ampacities
(B) Devices Rated 800 A or Less the next
higher standard device rating shall be
permitted
(C) Devices Rated over 800 A the

Calculate and plot the TCC landmarks for 3-1/C, 500MCM, THWN
copper conductors installed in 2-1/2 conduit on a 480V distribution
system. Then set a LV MCCB to protect the cable. The feeder breaker is
a GE SG Spectra Series MCCB with a MVT Plus trip unit equipped with LSI
adjustable functions. The maximum available through fault current is
21.5kA.
