Hi guys,
Just had a bit of a tidy up at work regarding the circuitry of a few bits and bobs.
I have recently just put in a new TPN 6 way and want to move one of the machines on to this board and take it off the current tp&n switch fuse. Each phase is currently protected by a BS88 32amp 80KA 415v fuse and the machine in question is run with (now this is where the issue is) what ibelieve to be an 11kw motor. Ohm's law calcs suggest to me it is 11kw not the 14kw it was also suggest it might have been but due to the protective device ratings it has operated on all this time [as 11kw @ 415v would be drawing 26amps pp] i believe it to be 11kw. There is no spec plate so i cant even denote it from any given HP values.
But going on the knowledge it is drawing 26amps or there abouts, a type C 32amp would suffice correct.
Cable supplying feed is 6mm 4 core SWA, new sub board [lets call it DB2 for now] is fed with 10mm 4 core SWA and protected with a type D 63A at the main board DB1
