2.40.1.6 Standard Ampere Ratings. (a) Fuses and Fixed-Trip Circuit Breakers. The standard ampere ratings for fuses and inverse time circuit breakers shall be considered 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, 50, 60, 70, 80, 90, 100, 110, 125, 150, 175, 200, 225, 250, 300, 350, 400, 450, 500, 600, 700, 800, 1000, 1200, 1600, 2000, 2500, 3000, 4000, 5000, and 6000 amperes. Additional standard ampere ratings for fuses shall be 1, 3, 6, 10, and 601. The use of fuses and inverse time circuit breakers with nonstandard ampere ratings shall be permitted.
Section 2.20.3.13(a) Article 4.40.4.2. Single Motor-Compressor Branch circuit conductors supplying a single motor- compressor shall have an ampacity not less than 125 percent of either the motor-compressor rated load current or the branch circuit selection current, whichever is greater. For a wye-start, delta run connected motor compressor, the selection of branch circuit conductors between the controller and the motor-compressor shall be permitted to be based on 72 percent of either the motor-compressor rated load current or the branch circuit selection current, which ever is greater.
