Good afternoon to all.
i have a 1600 amp main disconnect feeding 2 800 amp panels to which I’ve got to run 2 sets of 3 600 kcmil to each one , cannot come from the top because there’s no space so I figured I use a through coming from the side of the main dp. Now what will be the correct size of the through
I uploaded a sketch of the plan any suggestions will be appreciated.
thanks.
