ECN Forum Forums General Topics of the Trade General Discussion Area Mast & meter-base on stucco?

I guess I've been using conduit too long. What kind of cable is that on the panel & disconnect?

The extra height on the mast is intentional. I'm allowed 1.5m unguyed - and I have about 1.2m from the top u-bolt (hidden) to the porcelain insulator. I only have ~30' to the pole so the cantilever load isn't an issue. The mast is 2-1/2" galvanized rigid... it's rather beefy.

The cable is ACWU. http://nexansenergy.com/egy/equip/bw/arcable3.html

I used 250kcm from the disconnect, and #1 from the panel (which feeds into the house to pick up the old/existing panel)

what type of cable is that
We also have this product available in copper to, and its called teck cable. btw that is done exactly how we have to do it in British Columbia. and thats is a 2 1/2" rigid riser (Called a Mast) here and can be 50 inches before it needs guying here.Those ubolts will have a back plate and lock washers and nuts drilled into blocking that would of been added. we have to remove the wall board to install the blocking.
