Dear LARRY EPSTEIN:
EMILY PLOWER
Associate Engineer
Sincerely,
The FPL equipment currently serving or planned to serve your facility may change over time as a result of any number of
factors, including but not limited to transformer replacements due to load growth, electrical grid changes or emergencies. As
a result, although we are providing you with this information for the sole purpose of assisting you in the completion of your
study, you and your client should not design, install or operate your system in reliance upon any expectation that the
specific size and type of equipment currently in place will remain so. If and when the size and type of the equipment
changes, our employees are not always in a position to immediately notify customers.
As the construction project progresses, any questions or information you may need can be communicated through me. I
have enclosed my business card for easy reference and look forward to hearing from you in the near future.
Thank you for contacting FPL about the available fault current at 150 OCEAN ESTATES DR. Based on the plans you have
provided dated November 03 2020, the maximum available fault current at the transformer secondary terminals is estimated
to be 30684 symmetrical amperes at 120/240 volts. The protective device on the line side of the transformer currently in
place or to be installed and serving your property located at the subject location is a 10 amp type KS fuse. The primary
service voltage is 13.2kV L-L. This calculated symmetrical fault current is not intended for use as the basis for motor starting
calculations and does not include:
• Consideration for any motor contribution or
• Fault current asymmetry.
