I hate to step in this one,,,
unforetally yes i did see few conductors got damaged by male termal adpator espcally after hard pull i did nick few of them [ugh !! ]
but the code required the bushing on the male adpator it been like that way for pretty long time i was not sure when it was enforeced.
I think it was debated before related with mobile home service hook up and kinda pretty common to get red flagged from this one if not carefull with bushing
Merci, Marc
