" I, like POCO, hold local gov't in low regard because they are generally incompetent."

I have to take the above to task! I happen to be a state licensed electrical inspector, and work for a municipality. I also have great relationships with POCO inspectors and engineers in my Twp and other areas that I worked in as an EC.

Over the years, I learned that relationships with inspectors, POCO inspectors, engineers and architects were a very valuable asset.

Yes, our POCOs here know the 'rules', and yes, they for the most part are exempt from the NEC that I enforce on their installations that they are allowed to do under state laws.

The purpose of this forum is for electrical trade professionals to share knowledge, assist each other, and act in a professional manner.
