Not if he's using two duplex receptacles in each box, as it appears he
intends. And even if he's using one duplex receptacle per box, with each

half
on a different phase, he still needs to remove the bridge *only* on the

hot
side.


If you had looked, you would have seen that an immediate post clearly
indicated I had inadvertently left out the word "hot".

In any event, the terminology you want to use with your building

inspection
department is "split circuit receptacle".


Not necessarily. That's one duplex receptacle, with each half on a

different
leg. It sounded to me like he intended each box to have two duplex
receptacles, with each duplex on a different leg.


I seem to be in the minority, but I am still not certain as to whether that
is exactly what he meant?

Nonetheless, around here it is still referred to as a "split circuit"
whether it be in a duplex or fourplex box, or a series of same.
