It may go weeks before it trips the installer said basically the same thing
that Clare said he will replace it with a standard outlet after the inspection
Removing a safety feature is not a good idea and of course a code violation.. Get someone who is qualified to work on electrical wiring as your installer does not have a good attitude and is setting himself up for possible liability if someone got hurt or died from using a non-GFCI receptacle. Would you want a family member to plug into that unprotected outlet?
