Hi Mark,
Did you mean 2005 NEC? The language in the 2008 NEC, 690.64(B)(2)
doesn't differentiate between dwelling units and other cases, by my
reading. The same intent seems to be repeated in 705.12(D)(2). Or
perhaps I am missing something here...
Best,

Mark,
Wait a minute...I may be wrong here, as I have become the "graybeard guy who
handles off-grid and weird stuff" at Positive Energy, but I think the 2008
Code allows 120% for commercial, not just residential, as long as it is fed

At a recent John Wiles seminar, John declared that this scenario is not a
tap and is therefore not covered under the tap rule. This was news to me,
but Wiles is considered some sort of guru in compliance discussions.
