ECN Forum Forums Code Related Discussion NEC & other Code issues sizing service and service feeder

Greg,
Unless the bill includes a demad factor, the everything is operated 24/7 a bill does not help you calculate loads.
Don

Hi,

Don- have you ever seen a commercial/industrial power bill? do they not include the demand factor?

and i guess they dont meter power 24/7.

i know for my shop it does.

anyway to make everybody happy---

-"Do not use an electric bill to see what kind of load/power a place may be consuming."

use the methods posted by sparkync,George,DiverDan,iwire,resqcapt19 and anybody else that knows.

hey maybe i mispelled some words too..anybody care to take a shot?

nothing personal on my part guys..

thanks for the comments.

-regards

Thanks for the comments, all. I informed the owner we will have to change his service to do what he wants.... Steve .... end of thread....

Greg it is nothing personal here, it is all about the trade. Don is just as likely to point out when I am wrong as anyone else. I do not take it personal.

The reason you are getting singled out is because you post stuff like this...


...then when asked about it you say nothing.

This section of ECN is called "NEC & other Code issues" as such we try to provide code references.

Please do not take things personal.

mustang,
Please read article 90.1(B). You may want to retract this statement: "There is a big problem with your design..
YOU HAVE NO ROOM FOR FUTURE EXPANSION.

This is required by the code.."
