Does a single panel disconnect switch qualify for the internal parts that require disconnects?
Does a single panel disconnect switch qualify for the internal parts that require disconnects?
(OP)
I am referring to NEC 110.58 that requires a disconnect switch for all motors and transformers. We've purchased a small control transformer that comes with it's own primary and secondary protection. There is an internal disconnect switch that will cut all of the 480V primary voltage. And per our plant standards nothing can be worked on hot....does this main switch meet the requirement of this section of NEC? Or do you have a disconnect for each component?

Inside the panel is fine, if arc-flash labeling is provided and people comply with the required PPE attire. Outside the panel is better.
Best to you,
