I'm looking for a code section that requires a conduit body or box cover to be accessible outdoors.
Have a situation where there is large HVAC equipment shoved right up to a box and condulet....only about 3-4" clear - no way to access the cover or contents ...but it is outdoors.
I looked at 314.29 - but it talks about being accessible without removing any part of the building [not applicable here].
300.15(A) - The cover shall be accessible after installation - but it appears they are talking about the covers for wireways, multioutlet assemblies, gutters, raceways. It doesn't seem like the covers they are referring to are for condulets or boxes [just seems that way because of the way it is written].
Got any ideas? Thanx for any help.
