A contractor needs to quickly look up and apply disconnect clearance requirements between gas regulators/propane tanks and electrical equipment like generators, but cannot easily recall or access the specific distance rules.

Existing solutions rely on memorizing codes or digging through physical codebooks, which is slow and error-prone in the field; there's no quick-reference mobile app for equipment-specific clearance distances.
