How much headroom is required in front of a 100A service located in the basement of a dwelling?
A
Answer:
The simple answer is 6 1/2 ft. see section 110-16(e). IF you are working in an EXISTING dwelling unit, the answer changes, see section 110-16(e) exception. The exception has no required clearance for headroom until you exceed 200 amperes.
