Guess I should choose my words a little more carefully......

Like TheComputerWizKid said...it may fall over from the weight of the tag! I meant that if I was to "slap on the red tag" I probably would knock it over.

A definite RED TAG

This is a 3R rated EXO, when installed properly, I've seen a few of them around but don't like them too much.

Here's a cut-sheet for George's "Invisidorf"!

For the "After" picture of this install, look at the photo of another disconnect installed without support in the Violations section. It is about 1 swing of a ladder being moved from this to that.

Within a year or two this disconnect will be the perfect beehive. I was on a roof this summer that is common to 10 dwelling units. The A/C units are on the roof and the disconnects are mounted the same way. I tried to open one and it was full of bees. The reason for trying to open it was the A/C unit was not working. I am allergic to bee stings, so I went home early that day [Linked Image]

I used to use "Invisidorf" but it kept getting lost on the job. [Linked Image]

You guys are being a little picky aren't you?

This switch is braced with the piece of LFMC. [Linked Image] what more do you want.

Some duct tape over the holes? [Linked Image]

I can hardly wait to see how this guy meets the requirement of a receptacle within 25 ft.
