Hello, :slaphead: City Inspector got a door slammed in his face by GC prior to my work being started and now my job will not pass inspection:
City C of O building Code officer and city electrical inspector both showed up.
Problem:
I changed service and inspection was rejected due to sub-panel being at the stairway landing area of first floor.
They considered it a hallway?
Yes I can fit a 30" wide (side to side of panelboard) x 36" deep (clearance in front) x 7 foot tall box to meet NEC article 100.26.
No I did not get a code violation article #, recitement or any info yet.
No I can NOT hire another 3rd party inspector. ( city only )
No its not above the stair treads,
Can anyone relate or give me a good reason for a fail?
Any help out there is greatly appreciated from a Licensed Electrician, 30 year veteran.
