"This is the comment on why i made the abuse of power statement.
"If I did have to hold my nose and let that go I certainly would not be very flexible on the next installation."
As far as i'm concerned all inspections need to be handled 100% the same way, regardless of contractor or personal issues with someone.
To be less flexible with someone based on the fact that a contractor used the system to their advantage is just wrong."
I agree with your post/comments excluding the quoted statement. Personal issues have to be left in the car or home by all inspectors, and all EC's. The Codes have to be enforced equally, AHJ to AHJ, job to job, contractor to contractor, town to town, etc. This enforcement procedure is within the intent of NJ UCC (5:23 et al)
As I say to many EC's at CEU's or on jobsites, I don't write it, I only enforce it. Someday the perfect world scenario of "Black & White" with gray eliminated will arrive.
