A 600 MCM copper conductor with an insulation factor of 75 or 90 degree C is rated at 420 and 455 amps respectively. This is very large diameter wire to handle. The best way of wiring this service is to use parallel runs.

A 3/0 copper conductor with an insulation factor of 75 or 90 degrees C is rated at 200 and 210 amps respectively. So depending on the insulation of the wire that is used, a parallel wire configuration will give you a total of 400 at 75 degrees C or 420

at 90 degrees C.

How do you know if the single line is single phase or 3 phase?

If the single line is compared to another single line and the voltage that you need is correct then you are looking as a singly phase supply. The electrical classification of single phase is that any two legs of a three phase supply can be called single phase. Look on the nameplate of the distribution panel. There it will state what the panel is, either single phase or three phase. Look at where the distribution enters the building from the utility supply. If there are three insulated conductors (red, black and blue) wrapped around a bare aluminium messenger wire it is a three phase wye connection service. If you see two black insulated conductors wrapped around a bare aluminium messenger it is a single phase service.
