This is not necessarily an illegal application but there is a problem,I would assume it's split for one of the receptacles to be on a switch

I suppose the 2 hr rating is no longer valid.You can also click on a photo and then right click on a single image, insert it into a post then comment on it. Or you can do several at a time with comments before/after each photo.

I would say none of these images were licensed electricians, probably DIY handy persons.Do most of these pictures involve electrical contractors performing work

So they daisy-chained the other receptacle(s) to a red switch leg instead of to a black hot wire at the top part of receptacle ?Hint: This should be the final one, the switch leg is typically which color. I guess 1 more hint is good, there is only 1 switched receptacle in this room.

I thought the split-wiring was obvious. Anything else?Hint :
Each wire facing you has a purpose once you determine that you will see.. If not I'll tell you.
Obviously again, the two blacks should be together and the red on the other receptacle half.Hint : Customer tells me some times the outlets work sometimes they don't, its the strangest thing he says ..
