Re: Need more electricity
I bought the building which I'm in, only because of location. The building had 400 amps single phase and I brought in 800 amp three phase service. The power company dropped the service from the transformer and pulled it to my building undergrown. I had a choice of coming in with 208v or 240v delta. The power company didn't charge me a dime for doing this because it was considered a service upgrade and was needed for my business. I did pay an electric contractor $6000 for his labor and parts. I think the 800 amp panel was like $3000 alone. A lot depends on your power company and the city codes inspector.
