3 phase disconnect

[normbac]

Have a 50amp 3 phase 208V coffee maker that sits on a counter in a restaurant. The specs call for it to be hard wired, Panel is not in sight. No room for disco, is my only option to install plug and cord?

Install plug and cord and connect to what? Where is the nearest 50 amp three phase outlet?

had to run new circuit to top of counter the manufacturer requests flex and they hook it up.

Take a look at 422.31. You may not need a local disconnect.

Thanks Augie. i had read that but I mistakenly always thought 3 phase required disco I am so used to there being a motor when I have wired 3 phase in past I asumed disco was always required

I don't find it the easiest section to decipher, but, as I read it, a breaker lock will suffice in your situation. Don't like it, but thats my read.

If you don't want to hard wire it you can use one of these.http://www.stayonline.com/detail.aspx?ID=4810
