Note that the language states min. service disconnect size, and not
specifically the size of the service. In the old days we would go round and
round w/the AHJ over this in OTG systems. In most cases we could point to the
"Service Disconnect" that was rated at least 100A this being the Main DC
breaker while the AC output rarely exceeded 30A @ 120V. However, some did not
buy this and wanted 100A of delivered service, at this point here in CA we
would have to fall back to Class K regs. This was created to accommodate the
numerous OTG homes and cabins that could never meet the conventional UBC
standards. Our home was the 1st court test case in the state as at the time a
geodesic dome would not meet local codes even though we had blueprints stamped
by Bucky Fuller himself. Interestingly, their main issue was that they could
not determine where to draw the line between what was wall and roof!
