Electrical power coming into a gutter
Correct me if I am wrong.
Have a buildiing that has 480v 3 phase coming into a gutter and instead of coming into a Main distribution panel they came off the taps and landed in to fusible disconnects. At first the disconnects were for lighting and transformers but they have added since. 5 disconnects. NEC requires no more than 6 throws of a switch is suitable for main disconnects... Correct me if I am wrong Regards. Tazz |

You are correct, unless there is a main disconnect before the gutter
