Short Circuit Current Rating (Watthour Meter not included in short circuit rating) circuit when By-Pass provided.
This panelboard has a short circuit current rating of 22,000 Amps RMS symmetrical, 120/240 V~. The actual rating is dependent on the
service disconnects and branch breakers installed in this panelboard. The correct Service disconnects, branch circuit breakers and
main/branch breaker series combinations to be used for various short circuit current levels are listed in the tabulation below. Any circuit
breaker installed, replaced, or added in this panelboard must be manufactured by Siemens and must be of the correct type as
indicated in the tabulations below.
