Hey ZR600....ease up, Brian. The dangerous situation doesn't even exist anymore, for which I'm thankful. BTW, to contrast how paradoxical on safety some electricians can be, consider my above reply to Scott with reference to the DFW grounding problems with BX being used as the equipment grounding conductors. Yet, these are the SAME personnel who, when I introduced them to MC cable, balked at using MC because NONE of them had been exposed to it. For years and years they only knew how to bend pipe and pull wires. Here's the paradox...nevermind that they could use the MC for some applications.(WHICH ALWAYS HAS AN INSULATED GROUND). Neither did they like it when I made them pigtail separate grounds to every single box, whether it was sw,recep,bell, or four sq. They saw it as a waste of time..I didn't. Yet they were all "experience electricians" who were sheltered in one place too long and resistant to accomodating modern safety practices. I that case, however, I WON the fights because I was boss.
