Ok, customer needs a dedicated receptacle in a particular location.
I got a panel within 10 feet of location, problem is there's no neutral.
Panel is fed with 150A breaker, 3 #1/0 and a #4 black used as a ground.
Panel feeds 2 ovens at three phase, 40 some amps each. Plenty available, but no neutral.
The conduit feeding the panel is EMT
Any other options would cost in the thousands of dollars as the next panel is some 200 feet away and the location is like an island in the middle of the store.
My solution: Changed the tape from green to white on both ends of the #4, moved the #4 from the ground bar to the neutral bar and run 10' of EMT.
I haven't double checked the derating allowed on the neutral, but other than this (or even this) can anyone find faults in this solution?
