One other thing to dig the hole even deeper, and Mark T don¡¯t go off the deep end ? as i am not claiming anything here but wouldn¡¯t/couldn¡¯t we want to know what the motor protection is as well? It could be lower than what the plate on the motor says couldn¡¯t it??
It¡¯s a question not a claim¡

Bill,
I guess I will stop here. I just don¡¯t want people to read this thread and think they can wire connected resistive loads for the full amperage of the CB, which is implied here.

I think Mark is coming at this technically and you are starting to get into the weeds with the code stuff, nothing wrong with that, but in this case figuring out what size breaker and wire gauge size is pretty straight forward. Just use what the manufacture recommends or absent of that, use what the motor rating is on the name plate for the voltage that motor will be connected too and use the 80% rule and you'll be good to go ?
