F-6 System Loading and Heat Dissipation
Validating the System
The example systems shown in Table F.11 and Table F.12 are verified
to be acceptable configurations. The systems are valid because:
• Calculated Current Values < Maximum Allowable Current
Values
• Calculated System Loading < Maximum Allowable System
