Re: resturant bid
Still, I informed the client exactly what I replaced and explained that they didn't really have a full 200A service.
Most people I deal with wouldn't know the difference and are pretty much at the mercy of those of us who do the work. Then again, it might not be an option to upgrade the incoming POCO wires. A lineman from the POCO recently told me that the wires coming from the pole are capable of about 170A, and they won't run new ones if they don't think they are needed. I recently upped a service to 200A, but the POCO won't upgrade the wires from the pole. The lineman told me they are willing to risk overload to their wires.Originally posted by shelco:
So they upgraded the equipment to 200 amps but not the service incomming. The customer bought that?
