disconnect for hot water heater

[PEDRO ESCOVILLA]

got a discusion going where one inspector believes a disconnect is reguired to be "in sight " of a permanently hard wired hot water heater (240 volt). i say no because it's not over 300 volts. based on 422.11 and 422.31, 2008 NEC, any takers ?:bye:

422.31 says 300 Volt-Amperes not volts.

I don't understand where the 300V or 422.11 comes into play here. If the disconnecting means meets the "lockable" requirements of 422.31(B), your golden.
