No plans to clear the problem up through complaints, The E.I. is an old friend and working buddy and I have no desire to rock the boat in his pond. He cleared the permit and won't be back
The other guy ( the one with the 2 wire idea) is a Housing Authority inspector working off a checklist….. no thinking involved
The house is a rental that ended up with a Sec. 8 tenant, which is why he showed up.
The GFI is in the kitchen next to the sink of course, so I changed it to a 2w, which can't be tested, then I re-installed the GFI after he left. He'll be back next Feb. for his annual inspection, he'll fail the GFI and I'll play his game again.
why the testers are even used since they need a ground to function
