You could just use breaker lock and not need disconnect

240.24(D) does not allow overcurrent devices to be located near easily ignitible materials, and it specifically mentions clothes closets as an example. I think the difference is that the act of opening a breaker or blowing a fuse, due to an overcurrent condition, involves the release of energy, whereas turning off a switch, under (at most) normal operating current, does not.

I 've seen several posts from Jim in Tampa.I have relatives from the Tampa area.I have a uncle that has been in the trade for 40yrs.And his son is also a master elec.I can tell from discussing installation procedures from time to time that they must have encountered a lot of the same type inspections.Seems like Jim has a very strong opinion on most matters.Alot, like my uncle.LOL.....I've learned a lot of little tricks of the trade just by listening and observing from my uncle...
