Tesla:
This was taken in DEcember 2002.
From my memory, this was the MOCP for the 120/208 service feeding this two story (w/basement) department store that was there for many, many years.
The building was a triple net long term lease that did not require a lot of visits from the owners property mgt team. This was the first time I was on site to prep the building for the upcoming vacancy and existing evaluation.
The top buss is the utility feed which came thru the masonary wall; load buss went down into a buss troff that the subpanels and discos were fed from. Yes, buss in a troff.
An assumption was made that the line side came from the UG utility vault street side,as was the 'usual' in the city.
Wrong! The other side of the wall was a transformer vault (utility)! Seems that way back, some agreement was made to have the utility 4160 pots in a 'vault' within the basement.
The POCO had a really tough time admitting the pots were theirs, along with the PCBs!
Yes, this building was electrically 'aged' in Dec 2002! It underwent a wall to wall interior demo, down to the bones.
