What Is Overcurrent Protection? | Family Handyman

Overcurrent protection devices (OCPD) are the things that stop the flow of electricity when an overcurrent situation happens. Circuit breakers are one type of overcurrent protection. Fuses, found in older homes, are another. Those aren''t the only ones, but they''re the ones most relevant to a typical homeowner. Circuit breakers and …

Article 240: Overcurrent Protection | EC&M

If the circuit''s overcurrent protection device exceeds 800A, the conductor ampacity after ampacity adjustment must have a rating not less than the overcurrent device rating. For example, a 400A OCPD can protect 500kcmil conductors, where each conductor has an ampacity of 380A at 75°C per Table 310.16. This "next-size-up" rule doesn''t ...
