Is it permitted to tap a bus (service conductor) inside a 1200A 3phase service enclosure to add conductors, exit the enclosure and run to another enclosure twenty feet away? I can't see where this is allowed. I believe that NEC violations exist such as: No OCPD at the source of supply and UL listing problems because the equipment is being field modified (drilling the bus) to allow the addition of the conductors. If this is permitted for one set of conductors then would it be Ok to do it with three, or seven, or ten??? Where would it stop??? I believe that it is not permitted by code. all thoughts welcome and if you have a code reference that permits such a practice please provide it. Mr. Holt....comments?????
