Page 2: Feeder Tables

The tables and information contained in thisdocument have been prepared and distributed

by Design & Construction Engineers, LLC for thebenefit of the electrical contracting and engineer-ing community. Design & Construction Engineers,LLC makes no guarantee to the accuracy of theinformation contained.Many of us in the electrical trade and the engi-neering profession must repeatedly determinefeeder sizes for panels, services, and motors. Whenwe do, we have a variety of tools available such asthe standard amperage, conductor characteristics,and conduit fill tables of the NEC. Numerous rulesmust be adhered to such as maximum conductoramperage, conduit fill, and the many laws regard-ing the protection of these conductors as well asthe equipment that they serve.While all electricians and engineers should befamiliar with the application of the NEC rules thatgovern these feeders, much time can be saved byhaving prepared tables for feeders. The minimumcircuit amperage and maximum time-delay fusefor a 208V 3Ø induction motor will always be thesame so why figure it out each time you need it?Naturally, many variable parameters come intoplay with each circumstance. The bare minimumsize conduit needed for a feeder depends on manyfactors. Schedule 40 PVC can hold more conduc-tors than schedule 80. THHN insulated wire hasless cross sectional area than THW. A motor cir-cuit protected by a time delay fuse may not requirea grounding conductor as large as it would if wereprotected by a circuit breaker or non-time delayfuse. Nevertheless, if you find that you need torepeatedly determine various feeders and you stickto some standards, feeder tables such as these cansave many hours of labor re-inventing the wheeland reduce the likelihood of errors.In the creation of these tables, the following stan-dards were incorporated:1. Wire is always assumed to be THW. The vast

majority of wire being installed today is THHNwhich is much smaller. Basing conduit fills onTHW even though THHN will likely be usedhas several advantages. One is that it is a“worst case scenario” so that the conduit willprobably not be too small no matter what insu-lation wire is used. The second is that a con-duit’s available cross section varies with the

conduit material. EMT is the most popular con-duit type but, other than IMC and RMC, allother conduit types have less cross sectionalarea than EMT. Basing the conduit on THWwhile using THHN insures that a code violationwill not result from a conduit transition. Final-ly, feeder conduits based on THW will oftenhave enough spare area that larger or extraconductors might be able to be added in thefuture without replacing the conduit.

2. Conduit is assumed to be EMT as this is themost popular type. Since IMC and RMC areboth larger than the same trade size EMT con-duits, feeders that require threaded conduit dueto specifications or field conditions will still bevalid.

3. Conductors are assumed to be copper. The newAA-8000 aluminum alloy conductors are sup-posed to be very good and resistant to the oxi-dation problems of the old aluminum conduc-tors that led to so many fires in the past. Evenso, copper conductors are still more widelyaccepted for interior wiring.

4. Motor feeder grounding conductors are based onfeeders protected by breakers. Feeders protect-ed by time delay fuses might be able to usesmaller grounding conductors but installing aground based on a breaker allows future flexi-bility for the owner if he should decide toreplace the motor control center or panel in thefuture.

5. All feeders and branch circuits are assumed tohave a copper grounding conductor regardlessof the conduit type. Although the NEC allowsmany metallic conduit types to be used asequipment grounds, the IEEE has determinedthat having a separate insulated equipmentground wire installed within a metallic conduitoffers the very best performance and protectionduring short circuits. The metal conduit pro-vides excellent physical protection as well as aninherent short circuit path should the conduitbe cut into. The insulated ground wire providesa low impedance path to ground which alsomaintains a ground path should a conduit fit-ting break or be improperly installed.

Method Used

Only conductors that can supply the full amperage listed are used. Often, conductors that are rated less than the main overcurrentdevice can be used if the breaker or fuse is 800 amps or less (NEC 240.4(B)). An example would be 500kcmil used on a 400 ampdevice even though the conductor is only rated at 380 amps. Amperages are taken from the 75º column of Table 310.16 as foundin the 2005 NEC. Note that feeders used as service conductors do not require ground wires. Conduit listed is the minimum EMTsize allowed by NEC for THW insulated wire. Wire sizes larger than 600kcmil are not used as lugs that accept them are not com-monly available for breakers. If the 1Ø service is for a dwelling unit, check Table 310.15(B)(6) for optional conductor sizes.
