Re: 9 motors too much?

Andre,
Since the 120 amp breaker was introduced, I think I can count on one hand the number of tripped main breakers I have seen or were told about. Of those, I suspect most were due to defective breaker or some other catastrophic failure. The 120 amp breaker can withstand over 600 amps for several seconds before trip.
