Hi
I have a water well pump being fed from a soft start panel. The motor is around 57kW so I estimate around 102A/phase. But wondering what the feeder pd should be. I'm reckoning on a 160A MCCB @ any helpers please
Soft Starter Upstream Pd

Hello ipel
Th upstream protection MCCB or fuses must be sized to protect the cable used, so determine the cable size and then select the protective device to protect that cable.
The motor starter must include protection to protect the motor. This is a separate issue.
Best regards,
Mark.
