As Jim stated since there is no power on until there is a a final.Then a meter release is issued to the poco and then a meter is installed after the fact.All the AHJ has is what is visual only.IE:GFCI device or a GFCI sticker with out the sticker they use 210 8 A 3 as the article for the tag since there is no way to determine if it is in fact GFCI protected and if there is no GFCI device and no silly sticker then they are well within the boundries of logic to cite the article as a reason for failing the inspection.Heck an entire home might not work and on the final it passes.This is 1000`s and 1,000`s of inspections annually done this way.Not saying it is right ,but that is how they do it.
