we have a situation where we need to relocate an existing 400A sub-panel approximately 100' further away from the MDP...
the existing installation location is fed with a 4" EMT and a set of 500 MCM's...we plan on installing a trough in the ceiling above the existing panel location, and extend the feed the 100'....
the question, does anyone know any reason why we would not be allowed to install parallel 3/0's from the trough to the new panel? leave the 500's from the MDP to the trough, and bug in parallel 3/0's from there...
I can't find anything in the code book to prohibit this...just curious if anyone knows something I don't.
