A three foot by three foot pad has been poured and a gaurdrail will be installed.
I'll post some pictures when I do the final inspection.
It's a good feeling when you know that you may have made an electrician safer when he/she is forced to perhaps be in this panel energized.

Gee, until I started reading, I thought that this was about the scaffolding, which I don't think complies.
Boy the sky in Utah is as beautiful as ever. Great pictures

Ryan, That last picture looks like they should have one of those coin-operated Binoculars there for the tourists! This looks like the best solution to what was a bad idea. Is that UG service in conduit all the way? I'd hope there's not a buried cable under what looks like a pile of rocks. Bill

Hi Bill. I'll have to send you some of hte views we have in our city...they are nothing short of breathtaking as get up the mountains.
To answer your question, yes, all of the installations here have conduit for the service lateral.

Ryan,
Just curious, was this a satisfactory solution for everyone, or was it a hard sell to the contractor/homeowner?

Hi Bill. Beleive it or not, it was rather easy. The general contractor understood and agreed with my concerns, so he put it in.
I'm not sure what the buyer thought of it.

Ryan that came out great, when you said guard rail I had something ugly in mind, that is quite nice. I think standing there with a cold one would be kind of nice. Bob

Ryan — Is that a slightly cantilevered concrete pad below the ironwork?
