Re: electric room exit
Apart from the alternatives permitted in 110.26(C)(2)(a) or (C)(2)(b), it is important to recognize the requirement applies to the ?workspace? and not the ?electric room? itself. Obviously, they are very closely related but the electric room may be so arranged such that a single exit from the room is sufficient. Conversely, ?means-of-egress? requirements may dictate additional exits from the room.

Re: electric room exit
If your service equipment is of a distance away from the door to the room as required by table 110.26(A), then the entrance/exit to the room is under the pervue of the building department, not the NEC.
