Using a branch circuit, I have ran power to a sub panel for a detached garage many times.
I have never supplied power to a sub panel for a guest house. I also haven't provided power to a guest house from one of the (main house) 2ea 200amp panel boxes on a 320amp service.
The main house has an existing 320amp service. The customer wants to supply power to his guest house from the main house. The main house and the guest house have all gas appliances. I still need to do the load calculation, but supposing the load was under 320amp for both houses, can you run a house from a branch circuit (240volt, with neutral and ground)? If so, what is the largest size breaker you can install in a 200amp panel as a main breaker for the guest house?
