I have a question regarding using ground pigtails in our boxes with HCF MC AP cable. I don't understand why it would be required, the only problem is that I cant find anywhere in the code book that states that. We did a medical office building about 6 years ago when I was a first year apprentice and our foreman said it was not required then, and im pretty sure that would have been HFC AC cable. Not sure exactly how long the HFC MC AP cable has been out but im sure its a pretty new cable. But anyway with that cable we are using the correct boxes and connectors for this cable (they are stamped). Im not sure if there is something that changed from the 08 code to the 11 but if anyone has any information regarding if it is required please let me know, also with a code reference thank you. FYI its the same inspector from 5 years ago that passed the HFC AC cable with no ground pigtails.
