    Do Murray meter load center combination 400 amp (Model # JA3042B1400SC) requires a si
    Do Murray meter load center combination 400 amp (Model # JA3042B1400SC) requires a single disconnect breaker?
    The panel that I purchase came with 3 disconnect breakers (1(one) for 200 AMP and 2 more optional) and it is ul approved. The inspector is asking to have just one main disconnect breaker?
    Can anyone refer me to some information in regards to the above subject?

    Honestly I have no idea what the problem is. I am not familiar with this panel and am confused by your description.

    If the inspector is telling you you need only one main he is dead wrong. You can have up to six main breakers.

    NEC 230.71(A) is the code citation that you are looking for.

    Also, the inspector must prove to you that he/she is correct. Based on article 90 of the NEC.
