I know there is a code for breakers to be listed to be used as a switch for lighting 2008 NEC 240.83(D), but is there a code that limits the use of a Disconnects (200 amp) (fused or non fused) as a common switch? Other than not good practice, and I personally wouldnt use it that way, I cannot find a code violation.
Basically whats happening is a motor disconnect, 'levler' will be used to turn power on during the day and off at night and locked out to keep people from using it. Not sure why they don't just install a simple key switch to prevent this if they don't want others using it.
My question is, is there a code violation here that I am missing?
