I'm having a problem with an inspector and I just want to confirm this before arguing it.
I replaced an old Federal Pacific main panel for a customer that was worried about it causing a fire. I replaced the panel with a like sized main breaker panel, nothing else. I did not upgrade the service size or touch anything else.
Knowing the above, are the following two statements true?
A) I do not have to upgrade the grounding (no matter what is existing).
B) I do not have to add AFCI breakers to any of the branch circuits.
As far as the NJ Rehab subcode these are correct, right?
