well i often wonder who the nec is being written to Reno, while some parts are intrical engineering level calculation, others seem to be geared to legaleese
for instance, i'm sure you recall the redefining of fixture to luminaire... one of our best examples.....
i always imagine some whimsical scene where some sparky is explaining the toliet on the cieling to a scrutinizing inspector....
but i digress, here, what might be the most prevealant
'sleeve seen is the well guys use of the same black H2O pipe they use to bring the water lines in
it seems like everyone simply acknowlegdes what they repetitively see as being acceptable ....~S~
