Typical 4500W electric tank type water heater:

Disconnect with-in sight or lockable circuit breaker.

Is there a difference between residential installations and non-residential installations?

I was told there was but can not find it in the NEC.
 
In general there are very few rules that are different between residential and commercial. In this case there is no difference

You may be thinking of 422.34 but it would not apply to your water heater as it would not have a marked off position.
 
Thanks for the replies.
I was wondering if IRC (1,2 family and Tnhouses) (which I'm generally not involved with) may be different, but I just found the section and it looks the same as the NEC.
