Its a large Argos style shop, I've got the max. demand at 500Amps, that could probably come down to around 400 or so with diversity, that'd give me a TP-N...

    max zs on a tt system

    hi folks was wonderin if u have a tt system with a ze of say 113ohms, and a circuit say lights with a r1+r2 of 1.33ohms, in the section on test results were it asks max zs allowed by bs7671.... the answer for a type b 6amp mcb would be 6.13. So if my zs is ze..113+ (r1+r2)1.33 =114.33 which is...

    Calculation of Max EFLI readings for type C MCCB'S

    When calculating the max earth fault loop impedance of a 3 phase MCCB that you use the nominal voltage ie in this case it is on a 60Hz system (120 / 208V ) and a 350A MCCB : therefore 208 / (350 x 10 (C type)) = 0.05 ohms Therefore Zs is required to be equal or lower than this in order for the...
