Several things can affect any inspection. Upon coming from an inspection where I found that the equipment grounding conductor extended about 8" down a conduit so that it looked like the equipment ground was installed as called for, I went through with a very fine toothed comb. I then went to a job where at first glance everything looked good and so I did not look at it as close, but yes there still were items written up.

Next time I look at the first contractors work, I will be very pickey and concerned. I will be thorough until I know what to expect of someone and adjust acccordingly, yet all of us can use a second set of eyes.
