Hello, I am new here. Former union journeyman turned licensed NJ Contractor due to lack of work. Thank you in advance for any of your help.
Scenario:
Installing a new single phase 2-family dwelling service. Power Co. wants a 2 meter stack and their Service Drop will be 1/0. Panels are 200A in each unit. Power co said they prefer 1 set of SE conductors to their drop.
Question:
Should i size my 1 set of SE conductors by just using the total calculated load for both units? If not, any recommendations? I'm used to doing single family and I dont want to undersize them.. Thanks for your help.
