Location.


Disconnecting means must be located "within sight" from and "readily accessible" from air-conditioning or refrigerating equipment.

The disconnecting means is allowed to be installed on or within the air-conditioning or refrigerating equipment.

The disconnecting means cannot be located on panels that are designed to allow access to the air-conditioning or refrigeration equipment.

PS: That's Nonmetallic Sheathed Cable, took the picture outside of the location where I was teaching the DCA in NJ electrical inspection procedures back in 1984.

It’s almost impossible to see what’s going on in that picture other than it looks like the unit is sitting on earth.
