I have a project with two escalators that run side by side. We have circuited the receptacles and lights in the pits to the same circuit. This lighting and receptacle circuit is separate from the circuit serving the motor. The AHJ is saying that this is a violation of 620.23. He is saying that each pit requires a separate circuit, in other words "dedicated".
I've never run into this before. I thought the intent of the code was so that power for the motor can be shut off without disconnecting the light and receptacle.
I've looked, but don't find a code definition for "separate" or "dedicated".
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks!
