03:17 <omnitechnomancer> presumably this would also differ based on whether you want the supply to a residential vs industrial area?

08:32 <whitequark[cis]> esden: ohhhhh I see, it's only generating one phase (I assumed it's just a motor-generator arrangement)

08:32 <whitequark[cis]> * motor-generator arrangement with a 1ph motor and 3ph generator)

09:24 <nemanjan00[m]> Reply from CrowdSupply regarding case only orders... esden (@_discord_269693955338141697:catircservices.org)

15:23 <esden[m]> nemanjan00 (@_discord_268952761595461632:catircservices.org) I am having trouble parsing that answer. I will talk to CS and try to understand what they are talking about. Can you send me your order number via dm?

17:00 <chuckmcm[m]> I asked PG&E to quote providing 3-Phase power and to their credit they came out and looked at our underground utilities and the transformer by my house. $110,000 NRE, which they would wave if I signed a 25 year service commitment.

17:00 <galibert[m]> Would the commitment still go after they've burned down the house?

17:01 <chuckmcm[m]> Good question. I assume it survives to burn it down again 🙂

17:04 <chuckmcm[m]> A "neighbor" (his house about a mile away from mine so not exactly a neighbor but I walk by it on my walk route) paid around $45,000 to have 3PH installed in his garage (which is detached and has an office above) where he installed a FANUC machining center and a Hardinger? lathe setup. As retirement hobbies go, I can see it, but my wife would never cede the full garage 🤣
