I have a question on what qualifies as a service disconnect. I have a 25kv service feeding a 15000 KVA transformer. The utility company is providing the primary underground, but the transformer (customer owned) has top bushings and I have to transition up a pole and feed it from overhead. The NEC says that a disconnect is required and that no more that 6 six throws of the hand to turn off all power. Would three (one per phase) pole mount fused cutouts qualify as this means of disconnect? This seems to be the norm for utilities. Any advice is appreciated.
Thanks,
Jim
