Relating to another thread on whether a structure is being "served" or not, how would you judge this:
I have a pool building with a feeder supplying power to it. No question the feeder is serving the building.
Now I have a pool heat pump outside of this building. I want to run a separate branch circuit to the heat pump from a different building. This should be fine except I want to mount the heat pump disconnect on the outside of the pool building. Is this OK, or would you now consider the pool building being served by both a feeder and a branch circuit (violation)?
To me, the pool building is only holding up the disconnect, and nothing from that disconnect enters the pool building. It seems silly to mount a separate post a few inches from the building just to have an isolated structure to hold the disconnect.
