Motor T,

Don't get me started on "Home inspectors". Some of them don't even know what a copper wire is. I am serious, Several times I had to go out an re-inspect a home after a home inspector said that there was aluminum wire in the house. I would go out there and find old copper wire that was oxidized and looked silver. The home inspecto took the color to mean that it was AL, and not Cu wire. The cable it was in was an old RHH service cable from the 50's. I said that AL wire wasn;t even around in the time period. At least Joe T was trying to train some home inspectors on the NEC. I don't know exactly how many seminars he has taught to home inspectors and if they even learned anything.
