Lists the component type descriptions whose sizing ties directly
into the full load amps value (FLA) of the motor or load. The
MOTOR_I_DESC
CODE value maps to the MOTOR_I_CALC and MOTOR_I_MAP
tables.
Lists the formula to calculate the maximum amp value for various
types of components on a per motor type basis.
MOTOR_I_CALC
Maps the calculated FLA for a component to a specific rating
value and an optional catalog assignment.
MOTOR_I_MAP
NOTE Each table name can have an optional suffix to relate it to a specific electrical
standards code.
Motor table
The data in the Motor table is used to populate the Select Motor on page 710
dialog box. Filter the selection list by type, voltage, and frequency. The load
and FLA values for the selected motor are passed back to the Circuit
Configuration dialog box and are used in wire size calculations. The values
are also used to calculate breaker size, fuse size, and disconnect switch rating,
for the selected motor.
The MOTOR table follows this table naming convention:
■ MOTOR - if no specific electrical standards table is found, the default table
name to use.
■ _{standard} - optional suffix to relate it to a specific electrical standards
code. For example, an “_NEC” suffix could mean that the data for the table
parallels the National Electrical Code. A suffixed MOTOR table name is
not necessary unless you plan to set up the electrical standards database
to support multiple standards.
Feed table
The data in the Feed table is used to populate the Select Load on page 711
dialog box. Filter the selection list by type, voltage, and frequency. The load
and FLA values for the selected feed are passed back to the Circuit
Configuration dialog box and are used in wire size calculations. The values
are also used to calculate breaker size, fuse size, and disconnect switch rating,
for the selected load.
