<p class=MsoNormal>Hello Wrenches…<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>In typical ballasted systems, the combiner box is mounted on
unistrut fastened to roof stand-offs which are not fastened to the roof. I was
wondering what your opinion would be about this in reference to the following
NEC section:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><b>110.13 Mounting and Cooling of Equipment<o:p></o:p></b></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><b>(A) Mounting. </b>Electrical equipment shall be firmly
secured to the surface on which it is mounted.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Has anyone ever had a problem with this during an
inspection?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Thanks,<o:p></o:p></p>
