Breakers so not trip at execrtally the marked value as pointed out. The
200 amp breaker may carry 201 amps for many hours and never trip, or it
may trip at 295 amps after a week.

From the typical curves I've seen, a 200A breaker will trip in minutes
or less at 295.


I'm thinking that was a typo and should have been 205.
More likely it was supposed to read 195.
