Can you spot the code violation?

Got a red tag on this service change... can you see it?

No need a better pic

Ok, you got a green wire next to the white, then all the grounds connected together with the grounded conductors.
Now this might be too obvious, but is it this is not the place where the grounding and grounded should be bonded?

Leo- Best picture I can provide... iPhone quality.

Strife- All grounding & bonding were perfect text book. Not the problem.

Improper phasing -- one of the red wires doesn't match the same leg as the others. But I don't think that is a code violation.

The only thing I might be seeing is a EGC landed in the same terminal with a grounded conductor on the right side neutral bar 408.41

but with the image quality its hard to see if thats what I'm seeing

 

[hurk27]

On the left I see a red wire that looks like it changes to white at a wire tie, but again, cant see if this is a cable or wires in a pipe?

Since the photo quality is low I would only make one guess that the EI didn't like the conductors bundled together with the cable ties. IMO not a violation due to 310.15(A)(2)Ex.

I am going to take a guess and say he did not like some of the 90 degree wire bends

 

[electricmanscott]

Just tell us. Nobody can see it with that useless picture. :roll:

My guess is the 5th two pole breaker on the left has the black and red "reversed"

AIC rating too low? not marked on main?

 

[Dennis Alwon]

I will say that you did a beautiful job on this panel. Nice work. I can only guess the problem is the number of grounds that are under one screw. It looks as if there may be 3 or more EGC under one screw.

No deox?
The grounds from branch are under one screw?
I got it NO Cover!!!

I agree.

Read the post above yours.

312.4 Repairing Noncombustible Surfaces.

The building and the electrical inspector would require patching before it could pass.

 

[nhfire77]

Clearly, it violates 110.27 The cover is missing.



I guess we are not getting a better pic.

Moderator Rob gets the christmas turkey. Even though the EI couldnt quote me a code article on bundling the branch conductors together with ty raps... he said it was his personal preference that these conductors be cut free to stay cool. I in turn said that if a Square D breaker doesn't catch something before the insulation on the conductors turns to molten plastic... Square D needs to work on their gear.

I have done countless panel make ups in my day and never had an inspector come at me with "Personal Preference" I called BS and his supervisor. If you could look at it now, nothing has changed... I won the battle, but stay tuned for news on the war... next time I see this inspector I will most likely get a prostate exam gratis!!!

Fight the good fight, go down in flames... and if you have to take an reject inspector with you.

That section does not apply to cabinets (Panel cans). 312.4 as mentioned earlier would be the applicable section number.
