Roger, I am going through the opposite right now. A little history, this inspector has his own way things should be done, right or wrong. When asked where in the NEC where it states the way he quotes he becomes extremely violent and shouts out a mouth full of curse words then leaves. This is a state job and he is an employee of the construction manager-engineering firm hired by the state. Last week he sent out an email trashing my reputation as well as the company I work for. He sent it to his higher ups as well as the state and to the two general contractors we are working for on this project. I am waiting to see what action his company takes before my attorney takes this matter on. By the way he tried to shut the project down because he claimed we were in violation of spec and code. After his higher ups and the state looked into this we were told we were in compliance and to continue on. It was the following day he sent the email. I have been in this trade for 28 good years and now I am thinking of a new career after seeing what this home improvement inspector has done to me as well as the firm that employs me.
