I've got a client looking to buy 50 - 100 acres
with access to 440 3 phase electricity.
Question 1 - is this a heavy electric capacity?
2 - How does one figure this information out.
There are power poles that traverse the frontage of the property.
There are 4 wires total on the poles.
One of the poles has 3 transformers on it. Any idea?


The four wires on the pole are 3 phase power + neutral.
If the 3 cans on the pole are indeed step-down transformers
you will see that they supply a service to nearby customers.
they could be regulating transformers or reclosers ?
If you look for the nearest major customer supplied from the
line - it might give you a starting point to ask the power company
about that line's capability and connection costs.
If your client is considering feeding back into the grid
with his wind or solar generation - it would require some extra
approvals and installation costs.
