Rv site planning-understanding article 551

As far as the article 220 service calcs go, I think the RV service load calc is correct.
As far as these farm size well pumps that have 3-phase motors and a factory matched VFD / motor controller / phase converter, I would tend to ignore the 3-phase motor and go with 125% of the single phase input nameplate of the combo VFD / controller / phase converter as it probably falls under 430.120 or Article 455 phase converters or both.
My rationale would be its a single phase service, and the well pump controller is more like an appliance than a 'motor'. Much like many other VFD driven appliances these days that may use a three phase motor internally, but are single phase input.
Thank you for the reply! That input on the Vfd was what was really worrying me, but after talking to the well guys looks like I’ve got a solid plan! Appreciate all that responded and this entire forum for all the help I’ve received
