Yeah, has a demand meter but other than the AC, no spikes in usage.
Old location was on the high side but was consistent.

How I understand the billing in our area is, 3 phase meter has a needle that is moved to the max use and you are billed that amount whether the elec is on or off. Just check, it may not be important but then again. Frank On 8/12/2010 8:31 PM, Robert West wrote: Putting together a new NOC. The new NOC is in an older warehouse and we ripped out ALL the crazy wiring and the multiple electrical panels. Total gut job. Installed a single phase electrical panel for the retail and service area in the front but we have three phase coming into the building. Electrician uncle Dude, 80+ years, tells me that three phase protects against power surges since it adds another transformer. My question is, would installing a three phase panel for the NOC be a proactive thing? Advantageous against the great lightning and idiotic power company Godz? (GODZ Rock And Roll Machine) Old location was all three phase and we never had one lick of trouble Not one. Would this be the reason or would it be just a stroke of luck, one that didn't involve the lottery.. Figures.
