Question:
I have exterior 250 amp HVAC unit with a factory Breaker installed in the unit. My prints don't show a service disconnect. My question should there be a service disconnect with in sight?

Answer:
Hey Troy thanks for your question. Yes, a disconnecting means must be located within sight from and readily accessible from air conditioning equipment. That disconnecting means can be installed on or within the equipment as stated in the second sentence of 440.14. A disconnecting means provided by the manufacturer is acceptable if it meets the stated conditions and is properly rated.
