The rated ampacity of the circuit conductors, the full-load current rating of the ___

The rated ampacity of the circuit conductors, the full-load current rating of the connected load, and the size or load-rating of the overcurrent protection device for all is actually a - ____________:

The full-load current rating of the connected load dictates the wire size (by rated ampacity) of the supply conductors and the rating or setting of the overcurrent protection or sensing (overload electric motors) device.

By the same token, the rating or setting of the overcurrent protection device and the rated ampacity of the circuit conductors dictates the maximum full-load current that can be supplied from the service, feeder, or branch circuit in the electrical-power distribution system within a building or other structure.
