Which of the following is NOT required to be marked on a motor nameplate by NEC 430.7?
a.Rated full-load amperes
b.Rated voltage and horsepower (or kW)
c.Rated frequency and number of phases
d.The branch-circuit conductor size to be installed
Explanation
NEC 430.7 requires the manufacturer, voltage, HP/kW, FLA, frequency, phases, speed, and similar data on the nameplate, but not the field branch-circuit conductor size - that is the installer's design calculation. All other listed items are required nameplate markings.
