Restaurant service with kitchen panel single line diagram
A 400A 120/208V service with a kitchen panel, shunt-trip circuits under the hood and rooftop units. Use this for a restaurant fit-out: a 400A service, a kitchen panel for the cooking equipment, a panel for the dining room and breakers for the rooftop unit and the make-up air unit.

What the reviewer checks on this drawing
The reviewer checks the shunt-trip breakers on the equipment under the hood and what trips them, ground-fault protection in the kitchen, the kitchen feeder’s demand factors, and each HVAC breaker against its nameplate.
What the drawing shows
Every device on the sheet, in the order power reaches it.

Notes on the sheet
- Cooking equipment under the hood is on shunt-trip breakers. When the hood suppression system discharges it trips them and closes the gas valve (NFPA 96 and the mechanical code). Whether the exhaust fan keeps running and the make-up air stops follows the system listing and the AHJ.
- Fryer 14 kW ÷ (1.732 × 208V) = 38.9A; × 125% = 48.6A, on a 50A circuit. Combi oven 15 kW = 41.6A; × 125% = 52A, on a 60A circuit. Replace with the nameplate data of the equipment installed.
- Kitchen panel feeder may use the demand factors for commercial cooking equipment (NEC Table 220.56). They do not apply to the HVAC.
- Ground-fault protection for kitchen receptacles up to 150V to ground, single-phase to 50A and three-phase to 100A, which takes in cord-connected cooking equipment (NEC 210.8(B)).
- Service conductors in two parallel sets: 2 × 200A (3/0 Cu) = 400A, on the 400A main. Grounding electrode conductor #2 Cu (NEC Table 250.66).
- Available fault current marked on the service equipment (NEC 110.24).
Diagram is schematic and not to scale. Field-verify existing equipment ratings. Ratings and conductor sizes shown are typical. Confirm against the adopted code, the equipment listing and a load calculation before installation.
