Again, tell that to my local inspector. GFCI's were required in my

One of two things, then: either you live in a jurisdiction that has
adopted more stringent rules than those specified by the NEC, or your
local inspector doesn't know or doesn't understand the NEC.

...or is making up his own rules as he goes along. BTDT.


Well, I was trying to be nice... but yeah, that can happen too. Still
(IMHO) falls into the category of "doesn't know or doesn't understand
the NEC", though.

I had an inspector (not electrical) that knew the code, and even told me what
the code was, "but I want you to do it this way...". I didn't want to ****
off the inspector, so...
