I believe that all of New Jersey's utilities are no longer requiring it.  In New York, I don't know if any of the utilities have done away with this requirement.

Wrenches in PG&E territory:

You are probably aware of the recent decision by PG&E to discontinue the
requirement for the approved, lockable disconnect located within ten feet of
the meter.  If not please feel free to contact me off list for a copy of the
notice.

Not all AHJ's are going along with this.  Specifically, the City of Berkeley
continues to require the switch, erroneously claiming the it is "required by
the code."

Other AHJ's are not continuing to require the switch.

I am told that the best way to get the COB to come around is to show that
other cities are not requiring the switch.

To that end I would like to compile a list of the status of AHJ's relative
to this change.

I have the following list:

City of Berkeley, Continues to Require
Contra Costa County, Not Requiring

I have heard that several AHJ's in the foothills are not requiring.

If you have information on the status of AJH that you work with, please send
it to me so I can compile a list.

Thanks,
