Hi!
I have something that is bugging me about a project I’m about to take on. I do industrial electrical troubleshooting for work, but never new installs or much residential.
I have a guest house that I want to put an electric range in. It is powered with a 100A sub panel that is ran from the main house. The main house has 200 amp service. I have attached pictures of the two panels. The smaller newer panel is the guest house where I wish to install the range. I guess something that I have never paid attention to is breaker sizing according to the main feed. Would I be able to add my range which requires a 50A double breaker?
I am afraid with the ac requiring the 40A that if the a/c and stove were running it would trip the main 100A feed. Accounting for other misc draws from outlets and such. I haven’t done an amp draw reading on what the a/c actually pulls yet. Thank you for any help
