In reading both the NEC(2002), and NFPA 79(2002) reference is made to "Adjacent to" but no distance or sight requirements are given for this disconnecting means. In reviewing some panels being installed in our plants, our OEM's are pushing this definition to include distances up to 40' for the disconnecting means as long as they are within site even though the standard calls for an "adjacent to" disconnecting means. This is in refenence to Chapter 5 excepted circuits, 5.2.5.2(1). Any specific references would be appreciated.
