I've done quite a bit of electrical work in my house over the years and have
helped a few other people out. I always make sure I understand what the code
is for each project and I always follow it.

In another newsgroup, in a galaxy far, far away, there was an electrical
inspector that answered just about every question related to electrical work.

I saved his email address and when I got ready to install the inlet and
panel interlock for my generator, I contacted him. We traded a few emails
and he was immensely helpful in making sure I got it right. He even supplied
a few part numbers for me to look up so I knew exactly what I was shopping
for.

2 power outages later, I'm real glad he was available to help me out, even
if he was a few thousand miles away. While I was doing to the work, I was
confident that I was doing it right and that made me confident each time I
used the generator set up that is was safe and properly installed.


Indeed, he of whom you speak is quite good and undoubtedly would be
helpful off list as well.

I follow Code altho I don't use latest revision as my reference.

I wouldn't do work elsewhere that needed to be current-Code compliant; I
don't know it that well and don't care to do so.

Since the house project was rework of existing, inspection didn't
require updating to current Code. If had been forced to, would have to
get by...
