Hi,
I'm needing to land 14 sets of 500MCM Cu (4 conductor sets) into a 3000KVA xformer. The xformer has 4x typical 10 hole stabs. Would the use of 4x 2 hole 4 conductor panel board lugs per stab (2 on each side of the 4 stabs, 8 total) be appropriate to land this many conductors? I sketched this out and it should all physically fit with no conductors being jammed against each other. Am I missing anything here besides just making sure it will fit? I am not an electrician, but am trying to pitch this to my engineer who insists we need an entire separately enclosed 5000A cable tap box.
Thanks!
