Tsolanto, your installation is legal. The inspector is wrong. These are two seperate loads and per your discription you are in compliance with tap rules.

I don't have a clue as to how he could consider two sets of conductors going to different points could be paralleled. [Linked Image]

If it would make him feel any better, you could scrap the 400 amp disconnect and use parallel lugs on the load side of the meter, or replace it with a gutter and simply splice 3\0 CU conductors to your 400 amp conductors here.

Given the location of these panels, this would be in compliance with articles 230 and 240.
