I believe the answer was "no" last year.* That being said, by being "creative" about the location of your main breaker, I think you can get away with using only one. Hint: Think (on the) outside (of) the box.



*Last year's rules do not apply to this year. OK, I said it, now the fine print: But I rather suspect that this rule/ruling will make an appearance in the rulebook/Q&A again.
