Re: (ET) Snow blower breaker value
Opps as I said small graph. 155%
Performance characteristics are based on room temperature (77°F). Consult
derating curve at left for ambient temperatures significantly higher or
lower than standard room temperature.
Example: At 77°F the device is calibrated to hold at 110% of rated
current (1) and trip at 138% of rated current (2). At 140°F, the same
device will hold at approximately 92% of rated current (3), and trip at
approximately 120% of rated current (4).
So looking at the small graph on that page.
At say 32°F it will hold approximately 125% of rated current, and trip at
approximately 155% rated current.
Have yet to trip thrower breaker so either it is bad, or my shunt wire
for power meter is wrong. I tend to think my power meter is not
accurate.
Anybody have the actual amperage numbers for the different colors on the
power meter ?
