Good morning,
I need to add a kiln to a room in one of my buildings. The available power I have is 3 phase 208, 100 amp panel. Kiln will pull 31 amps when running, which will most likely be at night while other loads in panel are not utilized. Most are single phase receptacle loads. I do not think I will be overloading panel but would like to be sure. What's nice is there is a calculated panel schedule. It states 21,437 total connected load (va). 59.5 amps connected load. I would assume that this is on paper, I.e. Va per yolk on receptacle etc.
Actuall amp readings are 6a, 8a, could not get amp meter around third leg. Even on the branch circuits nothing jumped out as high.
Thanks for help.
