Situation:
I have a 12/3 mutiwire branch circuit supplying lights and receptacles for metal 8'x20' conex. I want to install a disconnecting means for the conex per 225.32 because I do not think that the 225.32 Ex #1 applies to my situation. The property is not residential and documented safe switching procedures are not established and maintained. 225.36 states the building or structure disconnecting means must be identified as "suitable for use as service equipment." 225.39(A)(1) states that for a single branch circuit the disconnecting means must have a rating of not less than 15A. 230.79 reaffirms that for a single branch circuit the disconnecting means must not have a rating less than 15A. I am confused. Please clarify.
Additionally,
I would like to have the 12/3 multiwire branch circuit terminate at a 30A 2-pole NEMA 3R non-fused air-conditioner disconnect on the conex. The circuit is fed from a 2-pole 30A QO breaker at a panel in a nearby building. From the disco I would feed the lights and receptacles. At the disco I would use the small little ground bar to; bond the disconnect per 250.32(B), run a metal bonding jumper per 250.104(D)(2) to the conex, and even though it is not required per 250.32(A) Ex, I would install a #6 awg to a ground rod(s).
Does anyone see any code violations with this procedure? If so, please clarify.
Thanks in advance.
