Thanks for all the input.
1. Joel, at First Call Communications cleared up the voltage question.
Unless special ordered, all US Tower motors are 110VAC., a 20 amp service
is recommended. Several suggestions received from the reflector suggested
running a 220VAC, 20 amp service to the tower, and splitting it into two
110 circuits, one for the motor and one for utility use.
2. Configuration of underground feeds to the tower:
You all said the same thing, check the local code. I spaced that one out,
the local code will dictate this one.
3. What kind of pipe, solid or perf:
Ditto, check the code.
Thanks for all the help.
