I am installing 100hp air compressors. I am wondering if I put the breaker panel within line of site from the compressors, can I eliminate the local fused disconnect at each compressor? The breaker would be the point of lock-out.
Thanks.

NEC also requires a local disconnect at the motor, but there are exceptions to this that you are probably aware of.
NEC does limit "in sight" to 50 feet, regardless.
