Question: Parallel 250 kcm alum. to a nonfused knife switch (utility required)outside the building, then through ct cabinet to 400a main panel that is about 100' away. Would the knife switch be considered the first means of disconnect and the 400a fused panel act as a sub panel? And would the GEC have to be run to the knife switch?
Yes, the knife switch would be considered the first means of disconnect, and the 400A fused panel would act as a subpanel.Yes, the grounding electrode conductor (GEC) would have to be run to the knife switch. Flag for review
