Yes, I do, and don't call me Shirley.
I'd say that the inspector's position is as well backed up as the electrician's claim that the inspector may do physical harm, so it seemed like a comical way to put city hall back to work for the electrician.
I looked up the laws just now, just out of idle curiosity, and found that the inspector would have to have threatened him in order for him to get the restraining order. That's too bad.
I think Ishium will wind up replacing the mast, and probably eating the cost. This is infuriating, and this inspector's behavior is one more reason why everybody is going to need to start charging double what everything should cost just to cover these stupid cases. I would make one last attempt to appeal to the CBO, and explain that without anything on the books at the city there was no way of knowing the city's position on this issue, and that the NEC has no bearing on it.
When the CBO refuses to listen (as apparently he/she is prone to do), then the mast will have to be changed.
