You think a landlord that went to the trouble to get separate meters is going to keep one furnace? :D

Just trying to reverse engineer the job is all. Are they metering individual rooms? The building doesn't look big enough for that many apartments based on the number of meters. I would imagine an 8/3 or 6/3 would suffice for a single room. :confused:
 
Long time lurker, first time poster. Here a few pics of some jobs I have done in the past

Control panels at a factory with wireway leaving them feeding power, data and control wiring.

Killer pipe? I'm pretty sure someone got killed after they installed this:

Not sure why someone would be killed???? This certainly is a lot of small pipe, but with the derating rules about more than 3 wires in a conduit and pipe runs being called out on the prints what's a guy to do?

Very nice work, I love that kind of stuff.

One question in regards to this last picture. I know that pictures can be deceiving, so maybe this question is not relative. It seems that you have a large gear, 480V with only one entrance to the space. The entrance does not look large enough. Am I seeing the right thing or not?

There are actually three entrances into the room, two double doors and a single man door on the far end

Here?s another shot inside the gear, all the phase conductors are 750 kcm

you guys are lucky i love doing that kind of work. i just wish i could do more of it. residential gets boring after a while and nothings better than wrestling with 500 mcm's after playing with those little 14 and 12 awg conductors all day
