i am at this commercial site getting ready for solar interconnection (supply side tapping) 1200A main bringing half a megawatt solar production into the facility through 600A fused disconnect.
the existing wires supplying the building is 5 sets of 400kcmil polaris tapped with 4 sets of 400kcmil going to the main breaker with 10 port blocks (9 of them are taken so only one port is left). we are bringing two sets of 400kcmil into the panel and need to tap into each leg. The space is limited and my plan is to upside the polaris to 12 port blocks and another poparis of inline block with 400 kcmil cable limiter (x2 each leg) into them. Does anybody has any recommendation better way to deal with this interconnection? again i am worried about the limited space available inside.
Thanks for your input!
