Homeowners can pull their own permits and do their own work here in the Golden State as well...
Randy, I have seen a few get denied at the permit counter here. And it is kinda funny and very serious few moments for me pulling my own permit, and having some HO at the next spot at the counter. I show all my paperwork, and I'm on my way.... The Electrical Inspection Dept here will send down the on-duty Inspector to quiz them about the whole job before or if they give them one. It's fun to watch, so I usually stick around..... (They do this for GC's too pulling a Permit for a service) If they dont answer the questions in satisfactory method, they wont give them a permit. And I have seen a few good blow-ups there at the counter because of it. I quietly applaud the Inspectors for it...
Anyway, back to the violation here: (This portion of the code has been deleted locally here)
230.43~(15) Flexible metal conduit not over 1.8 m (6 ft) long or liquidtight flexible metal conduit not over 1.8 m (6 ft) long between raceways, or between raceway and service equipment, with equipment bonding jumper routed with the flexible metal conduit or the liquidtight flexible metal conduit according to the provisions of 250.102(A), (B), (C), and (E)
(16) Liquidtight flexible nonmetallic conduit
Where flexible metal conduit or liquidtight flexible metal conduit is installed for services, a bonding jumper must be installed between both ends within the raceway. The bonding jumper is allowed to be installed outside the raceway, but it must follow the path of the raceway and cannot exceed 6 ft in length. The bonding jumper must not be wrapped or spiraled around the flexible conduit.
I dont see where that Flex is bonded on both ends....
