Hello All,
There's a 5 story mixed use building with 50 residential unit with a single line diagram like below.
208/120V 3 phase, 4 W MSA switchboard has 9 disconnects. The 1000A section has a main breaker. The 2000A section does not have a main breaker. Because the 1000A main breaker only shuts off the 1000A section, is this a violation of 230.71?
The 1000A section is for commercial despite the label 'House panels'. There's only one building for this multi-family mixed use building.
My question is:
Which exception of section 230.4 can be used in this case so that 2000A section does not have to have a main breaker?
Thanks.
