I work in an industrial facility that has a warehouse that is used to store finished product. They have a cypher lock on the warehouse door but not on the mechanical room door. I asked for the combo to the lock and they said I don't need it because I am not authorized to have access to the warehouse. However, I need to have access to the equipment room where the over current protection devices are located, I am also the only certified electrician on site for the company and I believe that I should have ready access to the room without waiting for someone to open the door for me. Is there any reference in the code that states that the main service equipment room needs to be accessed by qualified personnel, or can they restrict me from entering that room even though I am the only one that is qualified to do so.
