Background - one of our customers is doing a national rollout in their distribution facilities. We are only handling NJ, someone on this board may be handling this in another state. If you think you are PM me for the customer details...
They are adding power at loading bay doors for refrigerated trailers to be plugged in overnight.
Everyday these trailers will be unplugged, used for deliveries, then plugged back in overnight.
In their NJ facility here are the specs.
14 trailers.
each unit has an RLA of 24.7A
FLA is approx 32A
voltage is 230/120V
We need to run a 480V feeder approximately 500' from the MDP to a location by the loading dock doors. We need to install a 480V-230/120V step down transformer and a 230/120V 3PH panelboard...
from this panelboard we will feed each of the 14 doors with a 50A 230V 3PH circuit.
at each location, we need to provide a 40' cord to plug the refrigeration unit into.
These installs are not engineered and the company handling the project is over their head.
here are the questions: (I have answers, I'm just seeing if I'm right)
1) What size 230/120V panel would you put in?
2) how would you feed the SOOW cords at each door?
Thanks
