I'm sure I already know the answer as it has been confirmed by several L.E.C. already but I really trust you guys and respect you highly so I want to present the issue to you. Recently my company purchased a large bridge mill machine from another company. Upon going to their facility to assess the project I noticed that the machine called for 112KVA. After tracing everything back I found that they had wired this machine through 4 disco's through a sub panel out to a 112KVA Xformer. Inside this subpanel are an additional 8 20A breakers. Now that the machine has been shipped to our facility one of our maint. guys has convinced our super. that we needed this crazy setup so that we can run several items from this subpanel. Am I correct in my understanding that if the machine calls for 112KVA feed and the transformer is 112KVA this is all that can be run or am I missing something?
