We have an Engineer saying that 3/0 wire will carry 239 amps in a straight current transmission. I can not find this calculation.
We are running the wire from the power company transformer underground to a meter pedastal then back underground to a panel with a 225 Amp Main breaker inside the building. They are saying we can use a 3/0 wire and a 320 Amp meter base to a 225 Amp MB.
