For ScottG. I looked up the breaker info at work from the NEC. Doug
Circuit Breaker Ampere Ratings
Circuit breakers have an ampere rating (typically marked on the end of the operating handle). This is the maximum continuous current that the breaker can carry without exceeding its rating. As a general rule the circuit breaker’s ampere rating should be the same as the conductor’s ampacity.
Pure nonsense Doug. You found all the same information I did on the subject and you post BS to back up your side. But your problem runs much deeper.
Your problem starts with not being able to have a civil conversation without going into attack mode. I see you do this quite often. For that reason I feel no need to prove anything to you. Your just not worth it.
You are wrong about ampacity ratings for breakers. Plain and simple.
My EMS shows amp draw and I have run both ACs, fridge and inverter at 28-29 amps for HOURS in the Florida heat never popped a breaker.
As far as Doug's knowledge, he has forgotten more than most people know.
He is an excellent and accurate source of quality answers on the site.
