but I reckon I'll void your permit. The last time I was here I wrote 13 corrections and this has gotten worse and you haven't done the corrections. Yes I know that you are a general contractor and you can pull electrical permits. You just can't do electrical work and I am not writing another dozen corrections for you. Get a licensed electrical contractor to obtain a permit because you don't have a permit.

What you see here is just the start of what's wrong.

I learned a long time ago that I can't write 6'. It must be 6 feet or this is what happens. And it happens anyway.

Bond bushing on the GEC but not on the two LBs?
Bond bushing on GEC required by NEC 08 250.64(E) but they missed it at the ground rod end, not required on the two offset nipples to the LB's.

I see violations of 08 NEC 250.53(B), 250.64(E), 110.14(B) and 334.12(B)(4).

Thanks Chris,

You taught me something today. Forever I have required a bonding bushing whenever I encounter an intact ko. I even posted a thread to that effect with pictures. Now I've got to go eat a crow. When you posted the code sections, I went looking and while I was at it I looked at bonding raceways. There it was big as life, I've been doing it wrong. Well at least I've been wrong in the right direction. I should get a hat that says that. Anyway, thanks again.
