Allan,

Dunno the answer, but.... been looking into this a bit myself of late. In addition to the entrance size, you'll also want to know the distance you're going to cover. 500 feet will require a lot larger conductor than 100 feet. I'm guessing that with about 100 foot you might get away with something like a 1/0 awg triplex... but if you get up to 5 or 600 feet, then mabey you're looking at more like 3/0 awg triplex. I know on the farm here, the 14400 was run to within 50 feet of the main entrance, and then we break down the out buildings from there on triplex. I'd be willing to bet that the cheaper solution will be for you to have the power company bring their equipment as close as possible to your main load center. That damn USEI90 is expensive cable when you go pricing it.... HTH.
