What he is saying, that the wire going to the fuse can be a smaller gauge then that of the main line wire, which is 10 gauge. He telling me that a 16 and 14 gauge wire can be used up to the fuse.
I have a stituation with one of my electrical engineers. The problem is with the design of his power destribution for branch circuits and the gauge of wire to be used.
The rule-of-thumb that I was taught was that the wire going to the branch fuse needs to be the same size (gauge) as that from...
I have a 3 phase induction motor that has a brake. I'm conrolling the motor with Mitsubishi VFD. We seem to be getting some noise from the brake when it is activated. I would like to know what kind of device can I use to filter the DC voltage. The control voltage the brake is 24VDC.
Ok!! now I understand what your asking DanDel.
Each sub-enclosure has it's own disconnect switch and primary fusing. The primary fuse for each sub-enclosure is between 15 to 10 amps.
DanDel,
Main feed conductor is 40 ft. long, the main fuse is a type J 60 Amp fuse, and voltage to be used is 208VAC, 3 Phase, 4 wire.
I hope this is enough information.
I'm designing a conveyor system. On this system I have 11 sub-enclosures and one main enclosure. The power for the systeme is 208VAC, 3 phase, 4 wire, 60 Hz, 60 amps. Also there's 4" X 4" (hoffman) wireway (layin type) that connects all the enclosures together. The question that I...
I am working on a project that has one main electrical, and four sub-enclosures. The main houses the main disconnect and fuses. In the sub-enclosures theres fusing for the enclosure and motor controls (motor starters).
My question is this; in the main enclosure the disconnet interlocks the...
I am design a part assembly conveyor. The conveyor will be running off 208VAC, 3 PHASE, 4 WIRE. The total length of the conveyor is about 90 feet long. The conveyor will have to split it in half (due to shipping and installation purposes). Thus, the power line will have to be broken, and I...
