During an inspection the other day i had come across a 75 kva transformer in a room that has 24" of clearance in front of it. I wrote it up because of the requirements outlined in 110.26 (2014 NEC). The electrician came back and stated it did not need the clearance because it is not likely to require examination, servicing, etc. while energized. For a minute i was buying it but i do not see an exemption for transformers in this section of the code it just states "all electrical equipment". Am i in the wrong for requiring the 36" clearance?
