[MassHistPres] electric meters in historic districts

[Patricia Kelleher]

Good morning,

The Salem Historical Commission is experiencing an increasing number of requests for electric meter replacements due to MA code changes that require an exterior emergency disconnect, resulting in a very large exterior meter box. In some instances, the code change is resulting in requests to relocate previously interior meters to the building exterior. I was wondering how other historic district commissions are reviewing these requests.

Thank you,

Patti
