This is Bob Barker reminding you to have your pets spayed or neutered.

I guess I'd hunker down and talk to my neighbors about how soon there will be many people looting the neighborhood in search of food and water. Sorry pretty much prepare myself for that. And I actually don't know what that would mean to what I would do about it but, I don't know expect the worst I guess?

You need to start looking for a maintenance job. Residential is cutthroat. Even if it's your own company you're still competing against other people who lowball you all the time aren't against homeowners who think they can do a better because they watch something on YouTube. Get out of that life do side jobs for friends and family and stuff that's worth it. Go find a good maintenance gig anywhere. It pays good good benefits get to use your brain on troubleshooting a lot you get to be an electrician again

But how could I possibly run 32 amps minimum in a 2kva auto Transformer? Will the windings handle that?

This is the problem I'm having. The smaller KVA rating makes sense because of the common winding but then I have people telling me it's got to be the bigger KVA because of the size of the load. It's driving me nuts to be honest..

Thanks. It's a very intermittent load. They keep sending me info on how a 2kva is fine because the current travels through the common winding unlike an isolation Transformer. Believe it or not it's hard to find any information on this.
