Well my part of the project turned out just fine. The box is on the side of the house and it's temporarily wired in to run the current septic pump. The real question is what the electrician will say when he shows up. There's no schedule for it, could be months away. The project has been oozing...

That's an interesting idea, but I doubt that it's in the contract. I think they're more worried about the cost and getting bids, none of them are knowledgeable electricians. But in any event, it's now mounted 2 ft, so I hope they'll like it. If not, it can be moved higher and then conduit the...

Thanks very much for your help! The situation is a bit odd (some say it's because I'm odd :-). I'm not implementing the sewer for just my house. The town is implementing sewer for the whole town (eventually) and they contract for a flat fee for contractors to come in and install sewer for all...

Thanks for the encouratement! I'm mostly interested in protecting myself in case the electrician decides to be ornery about my putting in the box for him to wire the rest of the way to the sewage pump. In NM, after all, mere mortals such as myself aren't even supposed to wire a phone from one...

I was wondering if the code actually said anything about the height. It'd be *very* convenient if I could locate the bottom of the box 2 feet off the ground level so I could just have the cable go thru the wall directly into the box. It's just a sewer grinder pump disconnect so no need for ADA...

Sorry for such a basic question, but I've looked in the NEC book and can't find the answer, so I'm hoping somebody can point me to the right section that talks about this. I need to mount a disconnect box on the outside of my house for a 220V/30A run to power a sewer grinder pump. It would be...
