I'm on a current job where this building has a 800amp 120/208 service 16 100 amp rated meters with disconnects that tenants over the years have done whatever they wanted to it. Someone has removed the 3pole 100amp breakers and cut 150/175amp breakers into the gear. Our inspector said we have to repair this and take everyone back to the 100amp breakers, but the tenants are pulling over a 100amps and the building owners want a load calc. Is there any simple software out there for free or an Excel file to do nice simple load calcs and print them out?
Yes I know that this service gear needs to be trashed and new gear install, but these owners have already spent over $100k having us replacing another building onsite so they don't have enough money to replace this gear this year.
