We are seeing a lot of "mini split" AC units. As an example, let's say we have a mini split with an MCA of 11 amps, and a maximum fuse or circuit breaker of 25 amps per the nameplate. The wiring method is Romex. Wiring the unit with 14/2 would satisfy the MCA, however I believe it would violate 250.122 due to the 25 amp OCPD. To comply with 250.122, using Romex it seems we would need 10/2, no? Am I missing something?
