One of my service techs. was at a residential service call and found a burned jaw on the load side of the PG&E meter. The panel was a Murray (about 40 years old). The client, who was a contractor, and not the home owner, wanted my tech to repair the problem with used parts that he had left from another job. My answer was "no" because the parts were used and not refurbished. I felt there was added liability and some possible code problems that I could not identify at the moment and refused to do the job. My recommendation was a service change. Since these parts were not tested, I felt this was the right decision to protect my company.
Did I overeact?
