Does anyone know off the top what the Minimum work area is for in front ofa residential Meter Panel? Our Panel is about 8 feet from the ground and I need to build a platformto get it to the 6' to the center of the meter socket. Though I need to knowhow big to make the platform. Seems like I heard 30"x36"? Though don'tremember which direction. My Contractor Friends that do commercial say its42", though I think that is for Commercial meter mains. Any info would be great. Thank you! Scott-
