I got tagged by my inspector on a kitchen dishwasher and disposal because I didn't pigtail the neutral. I used a single device and broke the tab on the hot side and left the neutral tab intact. On my circuit there are no downsteam devices and it is dedicated to the diswasher and disposal. In the past, I've never had an inspector have a problem with this.
He said I violated 300-13(b) DEVICE REMOVAL;In multi-wire branch circuits, the continuity of a grounded conductor shall not depend on device connections such as lampholders, receptacles, etc., where the removal of such devices would interrupt the continuity.
Does this section of the code properly apply to a situation I have? If I actually removed my receptacle, there wouldn't be any downsteam devices to interrupt.
I attached a picture to explain what I'm talking about.
