In design I typically leave 10% spare capacity and 10% space for future circuits in my panelboards.
I'm being questioned by an owner why I added a panel when there was space available in the other panels. My answer is that I would like to allow for expansion.
I would like to back this up with a code reference, so does anyone know where in the NEC it would call for spare capacity in panelboards???
Thanks!
