Inspector failed a 200A upgrade we did today citing 225.33(A):mad:We fed a 100A main lug subpanel in the attached garage from a 90A breaker in the main panel. He told my guy the subpanel needed a main disconnect. Whats up with this guy. Left him a message and he hasnt returned my call.:mad:
 
sorry...I see so many "detached" my eyes fooled me.:)
sight unseen, seems like a bad call.
 
My guy said the inspector called another guy (I assume inspector) and asked him, came back from his truck and cited this article. Im just baffled.:confused:

Did a sewer lift. 480 to 240 stepdown to a small 12 circuit 120/204 panel. Fed it 60 amps with main tie down. Inspector tells me im wrong..... its not a sep derived system. I had just done one and when he looked at it then it was.....Confusion is everywhere.
