Default NM Cable and Bonding Bushings



Gotta love this. I can't take credit for this photo. A member of a building code forum that I run posted this and I know you folks will just eat this one up. Nice! This is in California by the way.

The person that did that does not have the "grounding" concept figured out yet. To say the least.

At least the person has a clue that grounding is an important part of the job.

Of course if I was an inspector and saw this it would make me check every box carefully ..... it would be a long inspection.
