On an air-conditioning unit nameplate, what does the 'Minimum Circuit Ampacity (MCA)' value tell the installer?
a.The minimum ampacity the branch-circuit conductors must have
b.The maximum fuse or breaker size allowed
c.The full-load current of the condenser fan only
d.The locked-rotor current of the compressor
Giải thích
MCA is the minimum conductor ampacity required to supply the unit, already calculated by the manufacturer (125% of the largest motor plus other loads). The maximum overcurrent device is the separate MOCP/'Max Fuse' value; MCA is not a fan rating or locked-rotor value.
