I have 3 phase I comming too the building and they want too change the lighting board from a mode evolution too a Lutron control system. But old board was 3 phase newboard isn't
my question is can I use Each phase (L1,L2,L3) on separate mcb and split the load a cross them total load is 6000w

If you need more info please ask
 
Hi Mike, and welcome.

What 3ph experience do you have?
 
6000w for lighting in a domestic property??? What is it? A mansion?

Ive got 4 bedrooms, office, lounge, dining room, kitchen, hall, landing, 2 cupboards and that only adds up to 1200w even if 100w st each point, plus 4 security lights at 400w, even then at most I can only draw 3.2Kw.

If the Lurtron controller is only single phase then you'll just have to stick with one of the three you've got. As a previous poster has said, 6000w seems a lot but a three phase supply seems strange also. If there aren't many big loads other than this you'll have to try and make it the only load on its designated phase.

That load is for 5 bedrooms 2 hall and landing. 5 bathrooms that's jus the top 2 floors all with low volt lighting so jus counted fittings
