When an individual branch circuit supplies a counter-mounted cooking unit, what Code reference tells us that it is “against Code” to apply the demand factors of Table 220.55 and requires us to calculate the load based on the appliance's actual nameplate rating?
What is the demand load for the service for two 3.5-kW wall-mounted ovens and one 5-kW counter-mounted cooking unit ? All of the appliances are supplied from a single branch circuit and are located in the same room of a one-family dwelling
Calculate the voltage drop of a 120/240-volt, three-wire underground residential service installed with 2 AWG aluminum URD cable if the load is 80 amps and the one-way length of the underground service conductors is100 feet.
