Checking the loads behind multiple subpanels
Describe what each area supplies and any proposed additions. A service evaluation should consider the connected installation rather than simply add together the labels on panel enclosures.
Map the destinations of existing feeders where known. Summing panel ratings does not replace an evaluation of the actual loads and operating arrangement.
Why are panel ratings not a load total?
A panel's rating describes equipment capability, while the connected loads determine what it supplies. Adding several enclosure labels can therefore give a misleading picture of actual property demand.
A destination-based load schedule supports a more meaningful service evaluation. The proposal can then distinguish incoming equipment changes from any separate feeder or subpanel work needed for the selected additions.
Details to include with this request
