Plan Set Requirements

If any work is being done such as replacing the service, replacing the meter, relocating a panel, replacing a panel, or re-feeding the home, then we need to design with the first means of disconnect outside next to the meter. CCI will not pass inspection with any "service upgrade" work without having the first means of service disconnect outside next to meter. This will require relocated main panels to be outside next to meter or a main breaker enclosure next to meter.
