I just got a $3,000 violation for not having a splice fully taped on a temporary installation,is this for real?
No exposed live parts,an inch of wire is visible from over stripping or under taping,is it worth fighting?

Keep in mind if you get a repeat violation for the same issue in the next three years the fine is $70,000.00
...One of the wire nuts on the light string near their scaffold came off (did the masons remove it?) and they called OSHA. OSHA fined the mason contractor as the "exposing employer,"..
Thats funny right there.
Why can't these guys get along? All they needed to do was call the electricians and tell them there was a problem. Or did the electrician give them a hard time on other issues and they thought they would get payback.
I can never figure out why subs always seem to think their work is more important than other subs. The reality is all parts of the construction have to be done and have to work together to accomplish the final finished project.
Going by that example, is the fine the same for extension cords when the cord ends start pulling off the end exposing the wires?
