Re: Raceway

NMB - me (is that correct and you are a residential wireman like George?), these are really great guys but your reaction was a bit strong. After that, they came back too strongly and things escalated. I think it is time to shake hands, make up, and quit flaming each other.

To address your question, the distance from an exterior wall to a disconnecting means varies. The Code requires it immediately upon entering the building. Different jurisdictions have rules that permit up to 20 ft (that is the furthest I have heard of). In Indianapolis, it is winked at for up to 10 ft but it is not in writing (pity the electrician who is sitting in the witness chair in court).

Welcome to the forum, I hope you will continue to contribute.

I think the buss extension discussion (argument) may have caused nmb to go over the edge.
