Need to provide a 3 phase supply from an MCCB board to a changeover panel. The MCCB board and changeover panel are side by side connected by 3 x 50mm brass bushes. The brass bushes have around 13inches (In old money) vertical between them.

Now we can only get 2 wires through each hole (120mm single core). Would 1 phase and neutral through one hole and 2 phases through the other hole still present a problem with regards to eddy currants, remembering these are about 13inches apart.

After advice before we start looking at how we can cut a panel out on an energized DB.

Hope thats clear...
 
I did actually contribute in a positive way right at the start of this thread!!!
The subject then became more in-depth and I considered that the materials online would be more beneficial than asking forum members to spend ages trying to explain something which is explained quite succinctly in various articles. I'm sorry that you found that observation rude Andy, and I will be careful who I try to help in future.
