To many hand movements or not. Not my work, making a turn around and saw this.

Doesn't 230.40 Exception 2 allow this?

 

[480sparky]

230.9(A), for starters.

 

[BackInTheHabit]

Looks like it violates 230.24(B)(1) at least.

oh no, the "occupancy or group of occupancies" debate is coming 'round again.

Yup......

 

[RUWired]

only problem with that is all the cables are all going through the same hole.

 

[jerm]

forgetting the "occupancy or group of occupancies" controversy, is that PVC being used as the riser? Is that legal? I've never seen it used for that, that's for sure.

I don't know what you mean by "same hole". Looks like two weatherheads.

edit: oh, the hole underneath? weird. That ground looks small too.

PVC is probably the most common riser material around here, followed by RMC for mast services.

We never, ever use EMT for risers here because it does not last very long.

The service lateral appears to be to close to the window.

Is the service energized....It looks like their are two meters missing with exposed voltage.

Could either be disconnected at the pole, or have a couple of those clear lexan covers over the sockets.

It looks like two groups of six to me.

How far apart do groups have to be?

 

[resistance]

PVC Straps are too far apart

The service lateral appears to be to close to the window.

It's fine, because it's above the window opening.

I'd like to see ya reach it...

What problem would that be? Siding guy is going to be happy!

 

[pjg]

PVC not strapped properly?

 

[resistance]

PVC not strapped properly?

I think so! Looks more than 5-6 feet to me

 

[tom baker]

2" PVC, if thats what it is, requires support every 5 ft.
Service conductors must be 3 ft above a window that opens.
