Electrical load center instalation requirements?

[michalspike]

Is any article in the code book that I can copy and show to the client.
What is the requirements for installation of electrical circuit panel?

What are his concerns? Working space (110.26) comes to mind. That space cannot be used for storage, so no panels in closets. Cant be on a stairwell, and I believe it has to be located close to the meter as SE cable has indoor length restrictions (I want to say 6' but it may be more).

My best guess is you are asking about working space and you should show him 110.26.

Other than that the question is way too vague to answer.

 

[michalspike]

working space I got.
But I found it already. Art 404.8.
I cant find anything about minimum. But I guess there is no min requirements

 

[michalspike]

Thank you anyway.

 

[JFletcher]

Minimum what, height of the panel? I dont recall a code on that, however I've never seen a panel mounted at, say, 12" above the floor.

So what is she questioning about the loadcenter? You haven't answered the others questions about what your question really is.

Havent run into those type yet - we usually get the hawks: watch everything you do. One man stood outside in 18* weather for 8 hours watching us install his generator.

You did not make that clear in your first post and I'm glad you found it on your own but, in the future you should include the pertinent information in the question.

I don't think electrical panel has any height installation requirements.

I am curious what you found.

I know the OCPD has a requirement.

If the OCPD has a height limit/requirement, then by default so does the panel!

Sort of. There are panelboard cabinets out there that are taller then the minimum height required for the contained devices.
