Hi everyone, it's been awhile since I last posted.
I'm working on a job where the metering components in different facilities are being upgraded. The electrical contractor installed a control panel that contains some computer equipment at one of the facilities. They fed the control panel from an existing 120v receptacle. They didn't install a plug, they hardwired it to the back of the recptacle. I believe this is a code violation and am trying to pin point which code it violates.
I believe the code doesnot allow a dedicated control panel (containing electronic stuff) to be connected to a convenience outlet via hard wire. I have looked at art. 409 Industrial Control panels and art. 210 branch circuits but don't seem to find what I believe is the smoking gun.
Can someone hellp?
Thanks!
