Failed because of a few stupid new rules. 1, All electrical receptacles must be tamper resistant. Yea that's right, they have to have those little doors inside so the stupid fucking children wont electrocute themselves by sticking shit into them. 2, all wires inside the walls must be supported at the boxes and every 3 feet. Yes, you have to wire staple the damn wires down so that they don't move around inside the fucking walls. Where the hell they going to go. They are trapped between to walls and held still by the insolation. 3, you must use round boxes for interior lighting. I used a square one and now have to replace it because its the wrong shape. 4, at every exterior door there must be a electrical receptacle OUTSIDE. WTF, Really? You MOST have one outside? wow. The smarter we get the dumber we get !!!


,

Code inspector's are the worst, they can be nit-picking pricks just because they can be! Who checks on them?

Did he happen to show the actual code violation in the books, or was it maybe he was looking for $$$ to make the so called violations to go away/acceptable.

He did not show me and I did not ask for it either. I just smiled and said OK.
I got all the parts and have ben working on changing them out. So hopefully in a week I will have my next inspection. If that one don't pass he might just turn up missing. Hahahahaha

I have No Idea why they want round boxes for lighting but square every where else, rules for rules most likely

To top it off, the outside receptacle box cannot be plastic, metal only. Don't know why but metal it is.
That's because it is outdoors and considered to be a Wet area so it should also be on a GFI protected circuit as well. Any outlet within a 3 foot radius of a wet area should be protected by GFI, next to a sink, under a sink, outdoor etc..

My pirates porch has just received a new telescope, the old one went to hell. This one is a Meade that I just got at a yard sale. Twice as big as my old one.

It was wrapped in a moist black nylon sock covered in large hairy spiders.
