We have a control box with a cb to deenergize all power inside . There are [3] 480 volt motors of 7.5 , 7.5 , 1, hp. all for one piece of equipment. Two of the motors has its starter/ disconnect in this box. One of the 7.5 hp is controlled by a vfd. With each motor having its own disconnect in this control box eliminate a need for a disconnect within sight of each motor? Each is abled to be loto in box seperately .
 
You must have a disconnect at the motor also unless you meet the requirements of 430.102(B)(2) (the controller disconnect is "within sight" of the motor) or 430.102(B)(2) exception (bit lengthy to post, but certian specific industrial applications)
