Does anyone know off the top what the Minimum work area is for in front of a
residential Meter Panel?

Our Panel is about 8 feet from the ground and I need to build a platform to
get it to the 6' to the center of the meter socket. Though I need to know
how big to make the platform. Seems like I heard 30"x36"? Though don't
remember which direction. My Contractor Friends that do commercial say its
42", though I think that is for Commercial meter mains.

Any info would be great.

Thank you!
