Here's the setup:
30A receptacle on #10 wire with a 20A breaker protecting it, non-residential setting.
I maintain this isn't legal per 210.19 and 210.23(A)(1). The idea being that a 30 amp receptacle, when used as designed, guarantees that the circuit will be overloaded.
Have several people that disagree with me, arguing that the tripping of the breaker negates the overload, swear that they have had this install pass inspection.
Opinions?
