Several months ago I was working for a contractor who holds a master electrician's lic. that took direction from a plumber. In one instance the plumber told him to run #8 wire for 100A subpanels because there was a #8 on the prints that pointed to the run. I protested and let it be known what size wire (#3) that it should have been, but my pleas went unheard. Long story short, the guy had us run the #8 to all the subpanels, then the plumber came back at the end of the day and told us that he made a mistake and that the #8 on the print was referring to the job notes (duh) and that we would have to re-pull everything. A few minutes of looking at the print and checking the supply trailer would have saved a lot of $$ and aggravation.
The bad thing is that the ME followed the plumber's direction in the first place.
That's just one story I have for the short time I worked for that outfit.
