Secondary Tap Box

[ctrane]

I hope someone can offer help, here is the situation. There is an existing building with a existing transformer feeding it. There is now new equipment, as well as, a new service (still under the 6 disconnect rule). CT Metering is taking place on the secondary bushings. The problem is that the spades on the secondary are full. The utility will not supply anything, as we are behond the point of metering. Does anyone know of a tap box that will help in running more wires? I was thinking that to run one set of wires from the transformer to the tap box, and then use the tap box to run to the various services. Any help will be most appreciated.

Both Cooper B-line and "Erickson Electrical Equipment" make tap boxes.

Or, you could build your own with "power distribution blocks" from Square D and a enclosure from Hoffman.

For Erickson, click the link below, then click on "termination cabinets" on the left side of the page.
