I{ was your supQestion to him to convert to pas from eler.tric to reduca ihe elecirical loed back to the oripinal end thus be able to repair the old service panel. I{ must be an �versight or ynu �re not nr.•are that, in Adc'itien to more offices havinP been built since {he original building� there hsve 6een .sduitional�outleis �dded for office m�chinery ano also additional m;chinery in the shop. This has put onou�ht additional loar! on the service to �xce>d the ratin� on the service ecuipm�ent. After temporery repeirs were made on the panel, I took a readin� to try and determine the cauae of the Pire erd read an &? amperr. lo�d on s 60 nmpere rated service. This readin� was noi � true Ic�d because no{ all of the shop equi�ment was operatinS. �n checks made under actusl opera{ing conditionc� swit�hes operating at more than 80;� of their rn{ing for long periods of tine •a�ill bre�k dowri due to excessive he3t. Therofore� a servico :crger thsn 170 ampere is being derrNnded. The lacal contractors h�ve suggesta;l n 200 amoere pane! instead oi a 15`J ampere panel as it can be purchased at less cost. This would be your option. IQ you have any questions� please cont�c4 ihis of£ice ns soo� a, possible. The temporary repairs are uperatinp above norm3l t.mpern- iure so something must be done imnediately. LJD:rm Yours truly L. J. Dougherty Electrical Inspector 11 tl Ji , � �� ��
