So that we're on the same page, answers here refer to '1ph3.xls' in Psched1.exe.
Looks like LTG - lighting, REC – receptacle, MSC - miscellaneous, BKR – breaker (size), CKT – circuit number (odd-left/even-right), BUS – Aø or Bø bus connection.
The summed per-phase loads should work for a 120/208V 3w bus and ø-n or ø-ø connected loads, but they do not cancel [worst case] in the feeder ‘neutral’ lead like that of 120/240V 3w circuits. {Has nothing to do with harmonics, BTW.} If, for example, there were two 120V 16A loads connected Aø-N and Bø-N then the feeder neutral would also see [worst case] 16 amperes. A 208V 24A load connected Aø-Bø would reflect no neutral current. {duh.}
Although Scott’s schedules apply to most panelboards and switchboards, be aware that 1- or 2-pole molded-case breakers in "I-line" boards don’t fit the usual bussing-sequence rules.
Scott35, you have provided E-C.net members with a very worthwhile set of spreadsheets, that can be modified to fit specific needs. You have done the hard part…thanks!
