TOPIC: Are You Plugged In?

Re: Are You Plugged In? 14 years 10 months ago #13554

Ken - Adrian has a great technique for determining service size.  He went to the hardware store and got a small section of each size - he carries them with him on inspections.  You could try that.  It beats saying that it was undetermined...

Kenneth, it is part of almost every standard of practice to describe the amperage and voltage of a service. I always check the main breaker for some type of markings. The panel back box may have an information label on it, but reliability is questionable. The panel cover usually has information on it, but is unreliable do to the possibility of it being a replacement cover.

Check out this link and scroll down to the lower portion of the page, there is good info. there.
