Well, Dave, the druggies got to the electrical, so I'm not sure if it is 3
phase. Might be? All of the panels are like this, although the 400A x 2
panels have much bigger wiring. The power bill was about $20k per month
when this was up and running. (Indoor grow operation). I did check with the
county and all of the appropriate permits were pulled. To be honest, I
think I'm going to go solar with this for at least the shops, with
generator backup. The two bigger shops have full southern exposure.
