Can someone figure a way to inform all home inspectors that 10 amp through 30 amp Square D QO breakers are rated by the manufacturer for termination of 1 or 2 conductors.......please.

Same here, I explain to the customer (buyer, seller, broker, whoever) that the HI incorrectly cited a non issue as a code violation.I just write up something to explain their errors and move on.
best bet is to just write a response that asks what section of the code is being violated?
In many places Hi's are forbidden from citing code as they should be, after all they're not code inspectors.
The problem I've seen is that they WILL cite the correct code section (110.14), but they don't understand that if the device is LISTED for two wires per terminal, it meets that code. Other than Square D QO 15-20A breakers, I don't think there are any others that allow two wires per terminal, hence the problem.best bet is to just write a response that asks what section of the code is being violated?

Eaton CH breakers are, and I believe Homeline are.Other than Square D QO 15-20A breakers, I don't think there are any others that allow two wires per terminal, hence the problem.
