And the Creme de la Creme....
The power companies in my state all got together to write a guide book, most of it follows or upgrades art 230.
This has grown over time...
The homeowner calls the power company, the power company forwards a pictorial of, say, an underground service, with basic info.
The homeowner, thinking it's as simple as the picture, and without knowledge of the other 100 pages, goes about the installation.
The utility comes by, slaps a "customer-owned " sticker on it, and sparks it up, and absolves itself of any no-no's.
Time goes by, the no-no's surface...and guess who gets to be the bad guy!
