I am not adding any rules ~ just enforcing the code that's all!

I am one that does not agree with any inspector who writes his own rules!

Asking for some simple items is not writing the rules it is asking for the work to be finished.

The rest of those here are electricians and may have their opinions, but the bottom line is that the AHJ has the final say and must uphold the integrity of his or her position in the industry.
But remember that for rulings like this the AHJ is not the inspector, it is the governmental body that has adopted the code.

and ..... The authority having jurisdiction for enforcement of the Code has the responsibility for making interpretations of the rules, for deciding on the approval of equipment and materials, and for granting the special permission contemplated in a number of the rules.

Hey Rob:

Not taking anything personal I have nothing against any EC and I am not mean!

Never even met you and probably never will, don't read into the words and get angry...

Then I ask respectfully what the code section is it that requires a luminaire or a dryer be installed at the time of the final?

Let it be known that my debate with Joe in this thread doesn't reflect my overall respect for him, but my statements and views hold true.
