Got a funny call on Friday. My buddy called me on the two-way, and told me a home inspector was down in a neighborhood that he and I wired, and declared that a subpanel we had installed was illegal because it didn't have a handle in the panel to shut off the panel.
Once the story was filtered a couple of times, as it turns out, the offending panel wasn't even a subpanel in the basement, it was the panel in the garage. Which is fed from the metermain outside.
Just like every other house in the neighborhood.
I told my buddy to tell him to cite a code reference. I then made an offhand reference to a Crackerjack box. I then laughed heartily and got back to work.
Where do these guys come from?
Edit to add: This guy has never seen an MLO panel? I wonder how much the customer is paying this guy?
