When the code changed and required separate neutral and ground on dryers it messed up all the delivery guys. I have seen them change the old 3 wire receptacle to a 4 wire (no ground) a 4 wire to a 3 wire, use a 4 wire cord leaving the ground loose and the bond on. Or leaving the bond on and a 4 wire cord.
And speaking of dryers, I could not count the number of dryer ckts here that were wired with 10-2 w/g even with inspectors approval, something that NEVER has been code approved.
Now that is spooky I did see that as well almost ready say get new conductors and be done right.
I did check with State of Wisconsin it kinda mixed bag on applanice repairs.
{ in France it must be done with cerified electrician to proprely hookup electric applanices if fuel gaz it must be done by qualifed gaz fitter or plummer if they have gaz cerifiton for it.}
Merci,Marc
