Under the current code all water heaters require that there be a disconnect within sight or have provisions to install a lock on the switch or circuit breaker. If panel with the branch circuit CB is *within sight *then it qualifies as the maintenance disconnect.Click to see full answer. Also, does a tankless water heater need a disconnect?Yes a disconnect is needed if it is not within site of the breaker box. The easiest way I could think of is to use two A/C disconnect boxes, one for each circuit. Yes you will need secondary disconnects even if the panel is within sight if you do not have a main disconnect (i.e. split bus).Subsequently, question is, does a hot water heater need a neutral? At this time, the conventional hot water heater does not require a neutral, however that will most likely change. Neutral wires are required for other 220volt and 240 volt appliances that have electronic controls that require a dedicated neutral, which is included with the 4wire cord. Similarly, it is asked, how far does a water heater have to be from electrical panel? The DEPTH of the working space must be 36″ out from the panel. Lay out a space that is 30″ along the wall where the panel is located, and extends 36″ from the front of the panel. You can mark the area on the floor.How do you wire an electric hot water heater?Electric hot water heaters typically require a dedicated 30-amp, 240-volt breaker. The wire supplying power from the breaker panel to your water heater will usually be a 10/2 Romex cable (Blk wire- hot, Marked White wire – hot, Bare copper wire – ground).
