Spotted these beauties at a local auto shop while assisting a Fire Department Inspector on an annual business inspection... of course, the last "annual" was in 2000!
The first pic is what we found 10' inside the door - it's a GFCI and it's cover hanging by the conductors @ 24" AFF...
The second pic is of the "shop lighting" that pre-dated the current owner - seems the previous mechanic ran 1/2" EMT up from 1900's, and just ran the 14/3 cord down into the box through it. Had to explain to the Inspector the concept of "listing" and "use as designed" as expressed in the Code.
The third pic is of a 220 receptacle 6" off a workbench.
More to follow.
