save money. If you have to put the panel inside, you need to
runa service entrance cable from the meter base to it.
That’s a lot of work and it’s expensive stuff.

if you put the panel next to the meter base with a piece of EMT
between it, you can use #2 wire.

Also, many jurisdictions now require an external service disconnect for the
fire department and the power company, so, if you put the main panel
out there, it covers both.[/quote]

that makes sense…i knew there had to be a reason.

According to stanpac, at least in the Cabrillo development, Mello Roos can increase by as much as 2% a year and have a duration of 35 years. I’m no expert on Mello Roos but this seems like a lot to me.

i don’t know what asphalt costs these days, but seems like they should have it covered for those kind of fees. maybe will have some money left over to build a new stadium for the Chargers as well?
