The Customer Will: (In this case the developer/builder)
- provide a transformer pad location per SECO specifications. For residential dwelling
units, the transformer shall not be located closer than 15 feet from a door or window to
the habitable portion of the dwelling unit (to minimize noise problems).
- maintain access to SECO to padmounted equipment located on the Customer's
property (ten feet of clearance from the door side and three feet of clearance from other
sides from items such as fences, shrubs and other obstructions

The above was quoted from Carol’s post #96. Gracie posted that it’s 11’ 2” from the house to the lot line and the transformer is inside the lot line. The access door appears to be facing the house. I don’t see how the location of this transformer conforms to either one of the SECO requirements listed above.
What am I missing?
(Good job on the photos and measurements Gracie)
Also, from reading these posts, it's my understanding that Penquin's original survey plat
did not show a transformer on the property. Now, I agree...they have to go somewhere. But if I were choosing a lot to build on and I specifically chose a lot for it's lack of a transformer and then they put one there anyway...I too would be very upset.
