Working on a nice job where I am at the same place, and I really don’t have to answer to anyone. I can just work.

Customer bought the building and now converting it to a production facility. It will have a 2500A 277/480 service when we actually get the gear (April/May). Currently running off a temp 800A 277/480.

Not to be a nit picker, Where is the ground for the transformer? Steel, water, ground/ufer?
Where is the other LV set of conductors?
I have never been a fan of unfused conductors going very far. To many do over jobs after a fault.

You do nice work, professionalism shows.

Ya I caught the two feeds. I agree not what I would have done either.
72 circuits on a 200 amp panel. Ouch!
I always have taken all of the grounds to one place. Inside dry types.

Your lucky to work for someone who buys colored conductors. I never have, lots of phase tape for me.

Curiosity makes me ask, were the shipping bolts on the transformer tight?
I have gotten some Eaton dry types made in Juarez Mx that were,,,, finger tight at best.

The shipping brackets securing the core were tight and a PITA to remove. The bolts to the pallet were tight but the pallet was badly damaged as far as I remember.
