Question:
Hello Friends,
Are switchgear and switchboards required to be mounted on house pads?

A
Answer:
Hi James,
The NEC does not require housekeeping pads for equipment such as switchgear, switchboards, motor control centers, and so forth. This is a good workmanship practice and often a requirement in owner or engineer specifications. The requirement for installing these types of heavy equipment is provided by the manufacturer's installation instructions.
