Just make sure it's in a NEMA 4X enclosure, however.

I'm just wanting a question that makes sense.

Oh well. I think I'll head over to the carpentry section and ask where I can use a 7-penny nail.

480 can you e-mail me 490 volts of double pixel dedicated ram? It's for a service upgrade I am doing Thursday, and I don't have enough lamp cord to hold in the blinker fluid. You can put it on my account!

Instead of putting on your account, do you have a wire stretcher, bucket of smoke, a case of post holes, some sky hooks and a fluorescent tubing bender you want to trade?

I have all that. Throw in a couple Xenon 22 amp breakers (with spindles) and you've got a deal!

Re: 50 KVA Service

Is this a 480 volt (RMS) service?

60 currents of amps are a small service.

Will you be including AFCI overcurrent protective devices inside the 50 KVA?
