You can use 310.15(B)(7) (assuming you are in an area using the ''11 Code) for individual dwelling units IF your install meets the criteria spelled out in that section (120/240 volt 3 wire single phase, etc)

I do not like the use of the phrase 135 A total draw, as it does not mean anything. Is the OP referring to the calculated load?
