Yes, 2-2-2-4 quadruplex AL URD is rated for 155A when direct buried.  Rating of wire depends on the insulation, configuration, routing, etc...

weird, could not find anything with rating when buried.  but the buried part will just be the 60amp feeder.  the 100amp feed will just be in the barn (about a 50' run.

You need a main or maximum 6-handles per code.  The 6-handle rule may not even apply to residential I'd have to look it up.

Checked with the boss yesterday and learned something new. Turns out that each of those circuits at the top of the panel are "main disconnects" but there should only be a maximum of 6 double pole breakers and no single pole. The spaces below are meant for individual 110v circuits. I guess it used to be a thing...

In that case: fuck your provider.

Who is it? Gotta be spectrum right? Been an age since I had to give a care about consumer internet service. Yuck.

Glad it’s fixed. That would have taken me a goodly while.

Everything that has the potential to sit for long periods gets E0. Don’t care about daily drivers. Not worried about seals and such but more fuel separation.

Ditto.

I only put e0 in my fuel cans when I’m home. I do abuse that on the road though. I have plenty of things that probably don’t love E. If I could drive equipment with a >2 gal tank to fill though, I’d forget about it!
