Why.............
Why does a townhouse (3 or more) require a 2 hour separation and a 2-family dwelling only require a 1 hour separation if both can be sold separately anyway. What is the difference and why/how was this decision made?
A townhouse is clearly specified as being a "separate building" whereas each side/up-down of a 2-family is considered a "dwelling unit" and is not specified as a separate building like a townhouse is.
Thinking about electrical, do we have to look at 2 family units as 1 building/structure for purposes of grouping disconnects?
