I strongly disagree.

If there is something unsafe there will likely be other violations of the NEC.

I can't believe I' m seeing people on this forum defending slopppy workmanship.

I am not, and I do not think anyone is defending poor workmanship.

What I am saying is that poor workmanship is not an issue for the NEC, it is an issue for the person paying the bill.

The term "hacks" certainly comes to mind.

If that what you want to believe so be it.
 
I think 312.4 is the most important section in the book. I hate it when some clown puts a panel, say, 3/16" into the wall.

Are quite common in commercial work it gives you an alternate path to feed a location when a pipe is lost in a pour. You can feed from both directions if one section is missing.

If 110.12 were enforced 75% of the EC's wouldn't be in business.

That is your view point, and you are of course entitled to it. :smile:

But it is not fact, it is only opinion, another person would say 99% another person would say 50% and of course some would say 1%.

We can not define 'neat and workman like' sure we can try but it will always fail at some point.
