Hi ,
I am working on a multi family building and I just fail the inspection.
I have two meter stacks . One two meter stack 200A and the other one is a three meter stack 300A .I install on the top of them a trough and from the trough I was running 4in rigid to the overhead.
The inspector is telling me that I am not allowed to have two sets of service entrance conductors in the same conduit.
There are no splices in the trough each set of cables are going to separate enclosure.4/0 aluminium to 200A meter stack and 350 mcm to the 300A meter stack. They are telling me that I am running conductors in parallel but is not.
The cables are ending in different enclosures.They are telling me to take them out and install separate conduits for each meter stack
Can you advise what I am doing wrong?Why two sets of service entrance conductors can't be pulled in the same conduit ?
Thank you,
Marius Galetus
