The intent of the line side tap, was to allow larger pv systems to
interconnect to the SE conductors and not have to consider the service
panel. So, I agree with others that the service panel has no
consideration for what you are doing. The panel is protected by the MSP
Breaker. Chris

Dana in your first example it looks like 120A of solar is pushing onto a
100A utility meter, over #3 copper which cannot handle 120A. But I might be
missing something.

Drake I think you’re right and they’re wrong, as long as the 200A bus is
protected by a 200A breaker, and as long as the Utility meter and utility
conductors remain 400

We have a design where the conductors will come out of a 400 A meter
base to a junction box. Splices in the box will allow for the PV to feed
the meter.
A maximum of 312 Amps can come from the inverters to feed the grid.
The loads on the existing main service are significantly less than 200A.
It would depend on which side of the OCD the 380 amp rated cable was on. IF the
400 A OCD is integral to the panel, then it doesn't matter what the cable size
is on the other side of the OCD, it's protected by the OCD, and the current
can't exceed that. If the OCD is remote and the subpanel does
Greetings all,
When the subpanel is fed with 380A wire and the OCD is 400A and the panel
bus is 400A, which number would be used for determining 120% capacity?
I'm thinking the 400A because the bus would be overfed before the wire?
So if we want to land 225A of OCD for solar output on the line t
