The purpose of branch circuit load calculations is to determine - (answer)The size of branch
circuit overcurrent protection and branch circuit conductors using NEC
NEC article 210 - (answer)Covers branch circuits ( except for branch circuits that supplies only
motor loads).
NEC section 210.18 - (answer)Branch circuits are rated by the maximum rating or setting of the
over current device
