I had an inspection today on a service change. While the inspector was there he ask me a question on another job that has him and me puzzled. The set up is this. Plans for a strip mall show a building that will be cut up into 10 spaces. The plans show a 1000amp service coming to the back in a riser to a trough. From the trough it shows 6 meters and 6 disconnects. 5 would be for tenants, 1 for house service. Then it shows about 20 ft away another 1000amp service coming to the same building in a riser with a trough and 5 meters and disconnects. He and I cannot come up with how they think this will work. 1 building, 2 services and 11 disconnects. The only code compliant way I see it would be to bring in one 2000amp service to a main disconnect then they could set as many meters and discos as needed. Is there something we are missing?
