I need clarification on application of 240.4D. I am working on a new test stand running motor loads of just under 25A. Using the 125% factor and current rating in table 310.17, 75C, I come up with #12AWG. However the circuit protection will be greater than 20A listed in 240.4.D. I have been challenged on that and have countered with 240.4.G and protecting per Article 430. The response back is, ?well we never used #12AWG with anything above a 20A breaker and you are wrong.? Am I correctly applying 240.4.D? I have trouble with, "that's the way we always did it" as an acceptable answer.
Thanks,
Tony
