We've had the electrical inspector out a few times, most recently for the
automatic standby generator. He never said boo about receptacles.


Yeah, me too. I don't have a single GFCI in my house. If a contractor wants GFCI
protection, he'll have to bring it with him.

Safety doesn't matter to you I guess.
OK by me. It is just a strange position for a bleeding heart liberal
who thinks there is nothing we should not do if it saves a single
life. (or the 400-500 that die from electrocution each year and the
30,000 that get treated for electrical related injuries).

Hey, I thought "bleeding heart liberals" did everything the NEC told them to do.
That would be you.

I am not talking about every stupid thing they put in the NEC but the
GFCI is probably the biggest safety advance in 40 years. You have to
be pretty silly not to use it.
