⚡ SPARKY BREAKDOWN — NEC QUICK HIT

DISCONNECTS AT STRUCTURES — NEC 225
joshthesparky4 · Josh The Sparky

OPENING HOOK
If a building or structure is supplied by feeders or branch circuits —
there MUST be a way to shut it all off.

CORE IDEA
NEC requires a disconnecting means so the entire structure can be de-energized from one location.

This is about safety, maintenance, and emergency shutdown.

CODE CONNECTION
NEC 225.31 requires a disconnecting means for a structure supplied by feeders or branch circuits.

In the 2023 NEC, this is covered under Article 225.32.

FINAL TAKEAWAY
If power feeds another structure…
there has to be a way to kill everything at that structure. ⚡
