 Ratings apply to circuits with voltages no greater than those listed.

 When protected by any circuit breaker, including thermal-magnetic and magnetic-only, meeting the size limits in 
Table 33.
3
 When protected by any Class RK5, RK1, T or J fuse, meeting the size limits in Table 33.
4
 When protected by any Class T or J fuse, meeting the size limits in Table 33.
NOTE: This table lists the maximum SCCR of the component when protected by any circuit breaker or fuse. If the 
maximum component SCCR is 100 kA and a 25 kA rated circuit breaker is used, then the system will be 25 kA as the 
circuit breaker becomes the weakest link.
