Proper Gutter for a service

[wmeek]

This is my scenerio: I have a 320 Meter can and i am running parallel 2" emt from meter can up to the bottom of a
6x6 Gutter. Also to the left of these 2" conduits will be a 1phase 200A disconnect and a 3phase 200 amp disconnect hanging from the bottom of gutter. 1phase disconnect will have 2-3/0 , 1-2/0 , and 3phase disconnect will have 3-3/0, 1-3/0. Also in the gutter will be a 1/0GEC Bldg. steel, 1/0 Gec to water pipe and #4 to each disconnect. 1-#4 to all bonding bushings in gutter. GEC to ground rod will be ran to meter can(per Utility).6(A). I came up with a 6x6 gutter size per 366.22 and 312-6(a).My question is this code compliant installation.

If you have 2" pipe going in the bottom and 2" going down to the disconnect then you have a Upull. 314.28(A)(2). The gutter should be sized 6 x 2" -- 12" high.

That wouldn't be a gutter, but would be a wireway, Article 376.

I guess it depends on if there are splices or is being used as a pull box.

If the wire enters and leaves the wireway, then you are using it as a pull box and it must be sized as a pull box.

Dennis,

Wouldn't it be 14" high? It says 6 times the largest conduit plus any other raceways on the same wall. (6*2) + 2 = 14.

of course, that's why I posted the picture-- don't ever trust me.... Thanks I don't know why I forgot the 2" but I did.
