HO wants 150 amp service upgrade to 320 amp continuous, 400 amp peak. This is underground feed and 60 feet from ground transformer to meter base. Present interior loadcenter is back-to-back from meter base. thinking about runnin' parallel 3/0 cu in 3" pvc and double lug both line and load side of 320/400 amp meter base. Will place one 200 amp interior loadcenter where the 150 amp one now resides(will discard present 150 amp loadcenter) and place 2nd 200 amp interior loadcenter in attached garage which is 3 feet from 1st loadcenter. The two 200 amp loadcenters will be connected with 2" steel conduit. Is it code compliant(Tampa bay,Fl.), to run the feeder wires of the 2nd loadcenter through the 1st loadcenter, through the 2" steel conduit and on to the 2nd loadcenter? In essence, the 1st loadcenter acts as a raceway for the feeders of the 2nd loadcenter. Can I just use the main breakers in the loadcenters as the disconnects rather than having ext. disconnects? Again, the loadcenters are 3 feet apart although separated by an 8" wall.
Thanks ---- Billy
