Even through CIM motors are usually on 40A breakers, they can draw significantly more current for brief periods of time. The breakers do not trip instantly at 40.00001A, they trip after X seconds
depending on the ambient temperature and current being drawn. Thus, your slip rings should be rated to handle the stall current of a CIM motor.
