I have been going over my notes from a UL class from years ago and was trying to see what effect on SCCR a power distribution block would have in a feeder going to multiple branch circuits in a panel.
Just ignoring figuring any branch circuit SCCR for this question and it being assumed at 65kA, If you had a 30kA power distribution block downstream from a feeder with 200 amp 100kA rated fuses with 29kA let through current , would the SCCR have to be lowered to 30kA or would the fact that the power distribution block rating is over the let through current allow the panel to keep the 65kA rating?
Thanks
