This is very interesting. We have a major "head in the sand" type issue here.
Look in the mirror for that head in the sand. :roll::grin:
On one hand you have posters saying this is no change, others saying it is a pointless change and then there are those supporting the new change.
Yes, that is a forum and we don't delete the posts that push a code position we do not agree with. You may be confusing this forum with another.
Since it is clear personal views arnt allowed to exist...
Really? have any opposing views in this thread been edited in anyway or been deleted?
Everyone is entitled to their opinion, you, Mike, George, myself every member.
.close the thread versus not even takng time to understand electrical safety concerns.
No need to close the thread but just because some do not agree with your view does not mean they 'do not understand'.
I know you call yourself a Guru, that does not make your opinion more valuable than anyone other member here.
Also lip service does not change the code...actions change code so I will look for a new proposal from those who disagree here...get involved with change or make change.
This is a code forum, should we not talk about code issues unless agree with the code?
This is a safety change and even if it is ignored...
No one in this thread, not even Don, has said they are going to ignore the code.
Don has different interpretation of it than you do but that is not the same as ignoring the code.
it is a change to bring it inline with other acceptable practices.
Again that is not a reason for a code change, 'one size' does not fit all and one code rule for all equipment does not fit either.
