Sep 28, 2021 at 20:21 | comment | added | Alessio Sangalli | I spent some time trying to read up the rule of six. Is there a solution to my situation (removing at least one tank-less electric and car charger) that will be compatible with the 2020NEC? I am quite confused by the whole thing. What if I have a main breaker in each sub-panel I install, in the garage, at the BBQ area, in the house? | |

Sep 5, 2021 at 6:16 | comment | added | Alessio Sangalli | Wow thanks for the analysis. California updating to the new NEC means that even projects approved before that date will have to follow the new rules? The way it goes around here, projects move at an extremely slow pace, so I might have to look into the "rule of six" Also, following everybody's advice, I decided to axe the electric tankless and I got a permit already to get gas to the garage. I will also cancel the car chargers. The only problem at this point is hot water at the BBQ area. Given the low demand, I was hoping to skip the need for a gas heater, but I might have no choice. | |
