Correct!  D. Section 430-6(a) and Table 430-148. (Wrong – 26.9 x 1.25 = 33.6). (Right – 28 x 1.25 = 35.0) Section 430-22 & 24 require that the motor full load current rating be determined from the ampacity tables in article 430, not from the nameplate. Motor overload protection is determined by the motor nameplate.
