I recently installed a 400amp meter on a post from which we went underground with two two inch conduits, one feeding a church, the other to a post feeding a manufactured unit being used as a youth center. I placed a 200 Amp service rated disconnect on each building and am being told by the local inspector whose decision i have appealed and by Dennis Clements chief electrical inspector for the state of oregon that the post I mounted the meter on is a structure and therefore I must provide disconnects at the post as well and feed the buildings with four wire. I will be appealing the chiefs decision as well as soon as he puts it in writing, this is all based on his defining a post as a structure. I am considering putting a door knob on the post and telling him the disconnects are located inside the structure.
