Default 200 A main disconnect size

In my continuing effort to get my standby generator installed i've
pulled my permits and received approval from my power co-op. But.....
the co-op is requiring me to remove the existing 200 amp main breaker
and replace it with a fuse style disconnect. They want a visible break
they can lock off if necessary. I have been looking for a new 200a
fusible switch suitable for main disconnect service that will fit into
the same space the breaker now occupies 24" vertical. Every thing I am
finding is 29" this will interfere with the transfer switch mounting.
So does anyone know of a switch that is 24" tall (NEMA 3R).

From what info I have, Cutler Hammer's line of disconnects comes the
closest. The height is at 25-½"
Not exactly what you are looking for, but better than 29". It is suitable
for service entrance, the cartridge fuse is available in 30 - 600A.
