NEC. To comply with the U.S. NEC, you must install this product on branch circuits that have
overcurrent protection as defined by Article 240 of the U.S. NEC.
Product power inputs with a current ratings of 16A or less must have a branch circuit, or a
■
supplementary overcurrent protection device, rated at no more than 20A.
Product power inputs with current rating of more than 16A must have a branch circuit, or
■
a supplementary overcurrent protection device, rated at no more than 160% of the product
input current rating.
Other national or local electrical codes might apply to the installation of this product.
■
As a general guideline, overcurrent protection devices should be rated at a minimum of 125% of
