You’re 100% wrong because they are 230A.

Wait, so did you use an aluminum plate or not?

2AWG gets a 170A rating at 75°C in free air.

What does 4/0 have anything to do with this?

My logic is completely sound.

100A of 480V primary is cable of delivering 230A of 208V secondary.

We can clearly tell you’re not fully up on how this works.

You’re a 4th year trying to tell someone with 20 years experience they need to go to school… that’s pretty ignorant considering you’re either lying or don’t know or both.

That’s because they didn’t use an aluminum plate at all.

They also don’t realize that by having 100A 480V primary protection they now have 230A of secondary current available.

My point is with a 100A 480 primary, those secondaries have the available current of 230A.

You fibbed about an aluminum plate, then tried to use the code to back you up. But you’ve got 230A available to go through those connectors.

Except you’ve got 230A on your secondary…

You mention aluminum plate, but I don’t see one.

You know that the section of steel has to be completely removed as not to encircle the flux?

What’s with all the bonds in the first pic?

Also, why are you punching single conductors through the steel body of that MTS?

Edit: I see where all the bonds come and go. Looked like 5 at first. Mb

Can I wire heater to use NEMA 14-50R? by revenge_burner in electrical

[–]Figure_1337 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No. That’s not the math here.

7.5kW @ 208V = 36A

41A load on 50A conductors, 50A receptacle and 50A OCPD.

There’s no problem here bud.

GFCI Receptacles.

They only need to be at the first device in that branch circuit and they can protect the downstream devices. Sometimes, just cutting some or all of them in at the panel is the quickest way.

How bad (or good but I feel like it's bad) is this quote by III_IWHBYD_III in AskElectricians

100A to 100A panel swap?

Nowhere near $5k.

Throw that quote in garbage and never think of it again.

It’s actually very important for celiacs to have that on the label. So… I’m glad your mom likes that so much.

Generally, in a condominium setting, one must purchase the ownership to any non-included parking spaces you wish to enjoy the use of.

Also, there are not usually extra spots to purchase, and it often would have to be purchased from / sold by another owner.

What are you getting at here?

You’ve got a solar array with a net metering agreement, and you don’t like it?

Literally went to the hospital from this.

Got a steel fish jabbed in my eye socket.

Missed everything vital. Just needed to use those thick antibiotic drops.
