Hello,
I have a 30 amp non-fused disconnect that is 39" opposite some water pipes. the Electrical engineer is calling us on condition 2 of 110-26 (A) 1. Clearance should be 42". The equipment it is feeding is a water take pump control cabinet has a door and it's own disconnect switch. My Area GF is telling me that a non-fused disco is just a switch since there are no fuses, no need for testing, examining, adjusting, and it is only a means of disconnect in the event of replacing the control cabinet. In addition, when the switch is in the off position, there are no live exposed parts. He tells me they have argued this exact case on Los Angeles Unified School District projects, which are the one of the strictest construction codes, second only to California OSHPD/HCAI, which is where I am.
Has anyone else encountered and conquered this?
It will be a lot of work to relocate on switch. My next move is to suggest covering the plumbing or installing an enclosed motor rated switch.
