I Have Received A Request To Install Eleven 480 Volt 100 Amp Cord Caps Exiting 24 Inches Out The Bottom Of A Wireway Mounted 12 Ft A.f.f.. Will The Branch Breakers Located With In 50 Ft Serve As A Suitable Disconnecting Means, Or Should I Install A Combination Service Disconnect/pin And Sleeve Receptacle, That Does Not Allow Un Plugging Untill The Disconnect Has Been Turned Off? Thanks.

I personally may make the cord and plug connections lower and more accessible, but I think you will be O.K. with the breakers as disconnects providing you install breaker lock offs.

Do receptacles require disconnects?

No, but the equipment installed in those receps may. The recep could act as the disconnect but they sound somewhat NOT readily accessible to me.
