Gerry,
Don't I just add up all those breakers in the panel to get my Amperage? |

I've always divided the total breaker amount by square footage of the home. No wonder why I'm getting so many calls from Electricians stating that I'm an idiot. |

I am not an electrical Guru by far, but would not the rating be as much as the main breaker and the rating of the meter and wire size.?
Known facts; Meter= 200 amps Panel= 150 Breaker= ? Wire size and make Copper or Allum. = ? How can we guess on the answer.? Since the amp rating of the panel is 150 that is the maximum it should be, not.? Can't tell from anything else, but then, I am just a dump hammer swinger Marcel LEED Green Associates InachiAwardsPortal: Inachi US Member of the Year Award 2009 |
