instead of using > blockquote to wrap a block quote, simply use the > as intended to indicate a block quote. ;) Also, one might assume that the quote comes from the PG&E Greenbook, but making that explicitly clear would be a good idea.

| Aug 31, 2021 at 3:40 | comment | added | Alessio Sangalli | Yeah I will not need everything at the same time. I either use the welder OR the plasma cutter OR the outdoors kitchen, so I wouldn't sum up all the services. When I mentioned 100A or 200Anfor the panel is to make sure the panel can support a peak. Second service seems excessive | |

| Aug 30, 2021 at 23:59 | comment | added | Alessio Sangalli | The garage is a new construction, I am trenching right now to lay the conduits. At this point in my project I do not see a need to change the location of the meter that is conveniently on the side of the house. Can you explain why do you think it might be useful to change the location of that? I'd just like to get a main breaker panel that can handle the current (power) and can host a PG&E meter, that according to my interpretation of the Green Book is a "ring" one. | |
