Larger equipment without a larger service assumption
Provide its electrical specifications and the loads it replaces or adds. The existing system needs evaluation before comparing a dedicated circuit with a broader service project.
Provide the model specification instead of only a salesperson's recommended circuit size. The selected equipment and existing installation establish the useful basis for discussion.
When is a new circuit enough?
A circuit supplies particular equipment; a service evaluation considers the larger installation. The appliance's connection requirement does not by itself determine whether the incoming supply must change.
MKB can review the new load alongside equipment being replaced or retained. Alternatives should describe both the required appliance connection and any justified upstream work, so the owner can compare complete and proportionate scopes.
Details to include with this request
- New equipment rating
- Replaced equipment
- Existing major loads
