Maybe the Dentist did that work himself, you know, the same guy that's working on your teeth.

As far as a code violation.....besides "crap work" What could we call here 300.3 (B)....dunno.

OK. If you want to bandy about with Code references, I'll throw 314.15 and 300.4 into the pot. Possibly 410.24 as well.

You never cease to amaze me.......ok to some degree I agree with 314.15 but 410.24....what is an electric discharge-luminaire?

HID.... High/Low Pressure Sodium.... Mercury vapor..... metal halide.... fluorescent.....


But to clarify, I mistyped. Again. It should have been 410.23.

Maybe electricians cost more than he does. In time he might get a fire from wires swinging in the wind and shorting. Bet he got help at big orange.

I would be concerned about one of the hot leads rubbing bare and energizing the whole metal awning, which may or may not be a "low impedance path to the sources" and some poor person coming up and getting killed touching the awning posts and the ground.
besides, is this a patient care area ? Did he run a redundant grounding wire ?

 

[benaround]

For $10 or less it could of been done right.

+Little bit of a steretch but 410.24 could apply here as well.

I doubt he has his dentist's chair on the outside porch. :wink:

speaking of "maybe the dentist did it himself" I am always nervous when I see doctors holding power tools to drill people's body parts, since I have seen how they mangle a #2 phillips screw head on their own home DIY projects.
