Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The overcurrent protection on the tap conductor's line side must be at least 125% of the tap conductor's ampacity. Therefore, the overcurrent protection on the tap conductor's line side must be at least 125% of 60 amperes, which is 75 amperes. The only choice that is greater than or equal to 75 amperes is C) 600 amperes.
