I have worked on commercial jobs before but have not done anything this size and have a plan but am wondering if there is another option. I am looking at a 1200 amp CT can. 800 amps goes into 1 building and 400 to another. The 400 will feed small subpanels and isn't an issue.
The issue I'm wondering is there any way around having to do main distribution on 800 to save costs? I have 2) 200 amp panels where power comes into the main building, and 2 separate ones across the building. I am looking to do 2 panels and 2 disconnects in the main room. Is there anyway to hit 4) 200 amp pieces of gear without a main distribution?
Meter of course is mounted right by the CT can. CT will have It's own stand 15 feet from the telephone pole, be concreted in and protected by concrete bollards. 400 amp building is 30 feet from CT and 800 is about 40 feet away from CT.
It is 120/240 3 phase with a 208 high leg
Thanks for any input.
