Letter from PSE to my customer who wants new service:

[bullheimer]

"We have received you(sic) application for service and we are currently completing it for the project manager to work on. Can you please send us the actual application again but with KW load on the appliances and not in watts. Also you have indicated a 3/4 HP pump, please provide the LRC (locked rotor current) for this motor.

Once we have received these information, we can proceed with the application.
Thank you"


My power company cannot convert Watts into Kilowatts. I told them that, instead of selling power, maybe they should consider selling strawberries at a fruit stand.

We'll how about that!:huh:

LRC of a 3/4 could be a deal breaker. Even our POCOs are starting to require soft starts or VFDs on large:blink:motors.

Wow man that motor is really large.

I don't know man, but i'd be willing to bet that the punkin head that wrote that letter probably makes twice what i'm making running my own traveling freak show.
