I recently was sighted for a violation under this new code for locating service disconnect switches on an overhead residential two family home inside in each panel by using panels with a main breakers.
The violation did not contain information as to where I could find the actual page in the code which declares the main disconnect for each apartment be located outside the building right along side the two meters which I had installed in a vertical position.
I?d like a comment on that. I?ve seen other two family homes in the same neighborhood now under construction and none of them have disconnects mounted outside next to the meters. This is a NYC location. I?ve never before seen disconnects for residential dwelling outside buildings.
