Fault Current and the NEC
This presentation will review the new 2020 NEC definitions for fault current & available fault current, as well as identify the sections of code that require documentation and labeling of available fault current. We will also review calculations to determine available fault current at different points in the system. Finally, we will discuss SCCR and interrupting rating requirements in the NEC.
