Operators of mobile home parks subject to Cambria, N.Y., Code of Ordinances ch. 127 § 127-17 are generally expected to coordinate with serving utilities to ensure all distribution supply lines and service connections are installed underground. Each lot must be outfitted with an approved disconnecting device, overcurrent protection, and at minimum a 120/240-volt AC, 100-ampere outlet; lots with calculated loads exceeding 100 amperes require either a second outlet or permanently installed conductors. Compliant operators also maintain proper grounding of all exposed noncurrent-carrying metal parts using an approved grounding conductor, keeping the neutral conductor separate from equipment grounding functions.
